India is young and brimming: Modi
New York, Sept 26 (IBNS): Carrying on with the responsibility of presenting a brimming young India to the world, Prime Minister Narendra Modi again tried to woo US Inc. by advocating Indias potential of becoming a global investment destination
In an article that was published in the op-ed section of renowned US daily “Wall Street Journal’s (WSJ)” Thursday edition, Modi reiterated his “Make in India” ambitions once again by saying, “Make in India is our commitment—and an invitation to all—to turn India into a new global manufacturing hub. We will do what it takes to make it a reality. We will pursue this mission by eliminating unnecessary laws and regulations, making bureaucratic processes easier and shorter, and ensuring that our government is more transparent, responsive and accountable. It has been said that doing the thing right is as important as doing the right thing.”
During his six-day stay in the United States, Modi is going to meet top corporate leaders, business honchos and bosses/CEO’s of 11 Fortune 500 companies including ‪Google and ‪Pepsico.
Committing himself of changing India’s image, PM said, “We will create world-class infrastructure that India badly needs to accelerate growth and meet people’s basic needs. We will make our cities and towns habitable, sustainable and smart; and we will make our villages the new engines of economic transformation.” He exuded confidence when he said, “India’s journey to prosperity can be a more sustainable and environmentally sensitive one than the path followed by countries that came of age in earlier eras. This is a journey of our choice, rooted in our tradition that worships nature’s bounties.”
Modi noted that there is a high tide of hope for change in India.
Modi remarked that India is on a path of inclusive development, which comprised of skilled education, and opportunity; safety, dignity and rights for those in every section of our society, especially women; a bank account for every Indian; affordable health care within everyone’s reach; sanitation for all by 2019; a roof over every head by 2022; electricity for every household; and connectivity to every village.
