June 15, 2026

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. He noted that just as every source of water has a different taste, every talent possesses its own unique identity and contribution. The Prime Minister added that innovation and progress become possible through the convergence of diverse ideas and capabilities.

The Prime Minister shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam-

“पिण्डे पिण्डे मतिर्भिन्ना कुण्डे कुण्डे नवं पयः।

जातौ जातौ नवाचाराः नवा वाणी मुखे मुखे॥”

The Subhashitam conveys that in the field of innovation and enterprise, each person has a different way of thinking and a unique creative vision, and this diversity gives rise to new possibilities. Just as the taste of water differs from one source to another, every talent has its own distinct identity and contribution. It is through the combination of these different ideas and abilities that innovation and progress become possible.

The Prime Minister wrote on X;

“पिण्डे पिण्डे मतिर्भिन्ना कुण्डे कुण्डे नवं पयः।

जातौ जातौ नवाचाराः नवा वाणी मुखे मुखे॥”
