New Delhi:
Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the third leadership summit of the United States-India Strategic and Partnership Forum (USISPF) Thursday, where he shared his views on “Navigating New Challenges.” Addressing American investors, Prime Minister Modi highlighted the government’s efforts to create an ideal business environment in the country. He said that foreign direct investment from India increased even as global investments declined.
Here are the main quotes from PM Modi’s address:
- A global pandemic is affecting everyone. It is also testing our resilience, health systems, economic systems.
- The current situation (coronavirus pandemic) demands a new mentality. A mindset where the development approach is human-centered
- As we look at the way forward, we must maintain our focus on increasing capacities, assuring our poor and future-proof citizens.
- India was one of the first to create a responsive lockdown system. India was the first to have masks and covers.
- We are the second largest PPE equipment manufacturers in the world. We have battled floods, two cyclones, locust attacks in addition to Covid. This made the people stronger. Through Covid and the lockdown, the center knew one thing: the poor must be protected. Free foodgrain for 800 million people for 8 months.
- The pandemic has affected several things, but not the aspirations of 1.3 billion people. Many renovations in recent months. It is actively working on the largest housing programs in the world. Increase in air connectivity by rail.
- We address both supply and demand. India is one of the lowest tax destinations. FDI in India increased 20% in 2019, when global FDI fell 1%. This shows the success of the FDI regime. All steps will ensure a brighter tomorrow and a stronger world economy. 1.3 billion Indians embarked on a mission: to make “atmanirbhar Bharat”.
- Atmanirbhar Bharat it fuses the local with the global. Despite local needs, we do not shy away from global responsibilities. We ensure the constant supply of medicines to the world. We are at the forefront of vaccine research.
- Atmanirbhar Bharat it is the transformation of the passive market into an active manufacturer. The road is full of opportunities.
- We take the country to new heights by celebrating 75 years of independence with political stability, commitment to democracy, and diversity.
