Narendra Modi hails Indian diaspora, India’s growing role

Hindustan Times  

Long Island, New York: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has hailed the rise of Indian diaspora, the credibility of Indian democracy, the scale of India’s diversity, the growing influence of India globally, the developmental leaps in India internally, and promised to work with three times more energy, speed and commitment in his third term in office. These values made India a “viswabandhu”, a friend of the world, the PM said, using a term that is increasingly becoming a part of India’s aspirational foreign policy lexicon. “Millions of Indians are driving India’s growth.They don’t just want roads, but expressways; not just rails but high speed rail; every city expects a metro and an airport; every citizen and village and city wants the best facilities of the world.” In 2014, Modi said, five Indian cities had metro, now 23 cities had a metro network and India had the second largest metro network in the world. This is our culture.” Modi said that a strong and capable India will play a key role in “global development, global peace, global climate action, global innovations, global supply chains”.
