The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi said that in the fields of innovation and entrepreneurship, every individual has a distinct way of thinking and a unique creative vision, and it is this diversity that gives rise to new possibilities.

The Prime Minister added that innovation and progress become possible through the convergence of diverse ideas and capabilities.

जातौ जातौ नवाचाराः नवा वाणी मुखे मुखे॥”
