India's economic growth ‘natural by-product’ of 9 years of stability: PM Modi
Hindustan TimesPrime Minister Narendra Modi has said that India’s economic growth is a “natural by-product” of his nine-year-old government’s political stability, as he expressed optimism that it will be a developed nation by 2047 with "corruption, casteism and communalism" having no place in our national life. The rapid and sustained progress made by India has evoked interest across the world and many countries have been “watching our growth story very closely.” "They are convinced that this progress is not an accident but is happening as a result of a clear, action-oriented roadmap of 'Reform, Perform, Transform'," he said. But now, India is being seen as a nation of over one billion aspirational minds, more than two billion skilled hands, and hundreds of millions of young people," he said. "This convention will allow countries and jurisdictions to move forward with historic, major reform of the international tax system," Modi said.
