Prime Minister Narendra Modi delivered the inaugural address at the India Global Week 2020.
Pitched as one of the biggest international events on India’s globalization, the three-day virtual event — themed “Be The Revival: India and a Better New World” —- is expected to discuss ways to boost the virus-hit economy. It will be attended by 5,000 participants from over 30 nations
“Will be addressing the India Global Week, organised by @IndiaIncorp at 1:30 PM tomorrow. This forum brings together global thought leaders and captains of industry, who will discuss aspects relating to opportunities in India as well as the global economic revival post-COVID,” tweeted the Prime Minister on Wednesday.
Here are the top quotes from PM’s address at India Global Week 2020:
- “The present event is a part of the excellent work that India Inc has done over the past years. Your events have helped bring the opportunities in India to a global audience.”
- “In these times, it is natural to talk about revival. It is equally natural to link global revival and India. There is faith that the story of global revival will have India playing a leading role. I see this closely linked with two factors. The first is- Indian talent. World over, you have seen the contribution of India’s talent-force. Who can forget the Indian tech industry and tech professionals! They have been showing the way for decades. India is a power-house of talent that is eager to contribute.”
- “The second factor is India’s ability to reform and rejuvenate. Indians are natural reformers! History has shown that India has overcome every challenge, be it social or economic.
- “India remains one of the most open economies in the world. We are laying a red carpet for all global companies to come and establish their presence in India. Very few countries will offer the kind of opportunites India does today.”
- “There are many possibilities and opportunities in various sunrise sectors in India. Our reforms in agriculture provide a very attractive investment opportunity to invest in storage and logistics.” (NDTV)
