We see entrepreneurship happening here (India). And we get to do business all over the world and it’s rare to have such a big economy (India) growing so fast and creating so much opportunity for so many. The ability to innovate, the ability to move with speed, the ability to serve more and more customers, to develop sellers, to build an e-commerce marketplace business that has just a really bright future and the chance to create a lot of opportunity for everyone.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s energy, dynamism and willingness to engage remains a prime asset for India on the global stage, but deserves greater backing. The diplomatic outreach following “Operation Sindoor” was a moment of national resolve and effective communication. It affirmed that India, when united, can project its voice with clarity and conviction on international platforms.
Today, India stands at the vanguard of global progress, guided by a bold and inclusive vision for development, sustainability, and technical innovation. Under your (PM Modi’s) dynamic leadership, India has emerged as a strong advocate for the Global South and a powerful voice on the international stage. Your successful hosting of the 2023 G20 summit, as well as the upcoming Global Artificial Intelligence Summit, which is due in February next year, are shining examples of this global leadership.
You, dear Narendra, know all too well what transformation means. You live and breathe it. Precisely because you have been a power of remarkable transformation for India – a leader of change.
I would say that whatever I have seen in these 11 years and you have also seen, whether it is at the infrastructure level, technology level, defence level, or any other level, after every 3-4 years, you see a growth. You see a powerful government. You see a government whose vision is not of 5 years but of 2047. A government which has a long vision can work in the same way. I am very happy that today our national character has become like a patriot.
It is really doing well in the last quarter, it even did better than expected 7.5% growth. If it continues like this, India will be the third-largest economy in the world, 5 trillion US dollars, maybe already this year and take over the third place from Japan.
This (India’s) growth is not episodic but structural, driven by a combination of strong domestic consumption, rapid formalisation of the economy, extensive digital public infrastructure, and a young, aspirational population with a median age of just 28 years—among the youngest globally.
Thank you Shri Narendra Modi for showing us that sometimes being an Indian also means to take a stand and to put an end to injustice inflicted upon us. It means to protect our people with fervour so no one will ever think it’s okay to reign terror on our brothers and sisters and try to divide us.
I have seen many united outfits in my sporting life, but this is the first time I am seeing a 1.5 billion-strong India united take the field, led by our magnificent Armed Forces and captained by the G.O.A.T., Narendra Modi Ji and his government.
I think this government initiative (WAVES), this PM's initiative, I have seen it for the first time in my years of experience that so much attention is being given to develop, scale, and exploit creativity. So it is a very amazing initiative, and its ripple effect will be seen year after year.
It was an honor to see Prime Minister Modi this evening. He’s a great leader and he was incredibly kind to my family. I look forward to working under President Trump’s leadership to strengthen our friendship and cooperation with the people of India!
I've listened to the Lex Fridman interview with Prime Minister Modi, and I listened to it in English, but also in Hindi, even though I don't understand too much Hindi, but I wanted to listen to it in original, and I reported to Prime Minister. I said, elder brother, I listened to that podcast, and I saw a spiritual leader. I felt like I was listening to a spiritual master. It was very spiritually fulfilling.
