In order to make our place in the world we need to create a credible brand, an individual cannot do this. States, associations and businesses must come together in order to achieve this: Shri Modi

Today, manufacturing businesses in China know our festivals well. They know and understand the Indian consumer well. This gives them an advantage when it comes to manufacturing everything, right from Ganesh Idols to Rakhis. Thus, Vision is extremely important if a business is to grow: Shri Modi

We should also look at how much raw materials we export and how many value added goods we export, we should try and export not just iron ore but steel, not just polished diamonds but jewellery: Shri Modi

Speaking about the Vibrant Gujarat Global Investor’s Summit, the CM said, “We are conducting 125 seminars. We will be touching all spheres of governance and development.  Our mission is bringing whatever is good and positive in the world into India and showcasing India’s strengths to the world: CM

On Wednesday 9th Janaury 2013, while releasing a book at the Gujarat National Law University, Hon. CM Shri Narendra Modi spoke about the importance of values and vision in Business.

Highlighting the importance of building a credible brand, Shri Modi gave the example of Japan.  He said, “When people buy something that is made in Japan, they do not want to know who the producer is, what the place of manufacturing etc. The label ‘Made in Japan’ is enough for the consumers. In order to make our place in the world we need to create a credible brand, an individual cannot do this. States, associations and businesses must come together in order to achieve this.”

Furthermore, the Chief Minister stressed the importance of ‘values’ when it came to brand creation and said, “We should aim for zero defects, when we go to the world we cannot compromise with values.” To stress his point, the Chief Minister gave the example of Gujarat’s cotton farmers who have successfully managed to create a credible brand.

Highlighting the importance of having Vision while conducting business the CM said, “We should study and prepare a chart of the things that will be required in the world in the future.” To highlight his point, the CM gave the example of Manufacturers in China and said, “Today, manufacturing businesses in China know our festivals well. They know and understand the Indian consumer well. This gives them an advantage when it comes to manufacturing everything, right from Ganesh Idols to Rakhis. Thus, Vision is extremely important if a business is to grow.”

Shri Modi urged businesses to consider exporting Value added products. He said “We should also look at how much raw materials we export and how many value added goods we export, we should try and export not just iron ore but steel. “ Further, citing the example of the diamond cutting industry, the CM said that if we export only polished diamonds, the returns we get would be less. On the other hand if we export jewellery, the returns could be substantially higher.

Speaking about the Vibrant Gujarat Global Investor’s Summit, the CM said, “We are conducting 125 seminars. We will be touching all spheres of governance and development.  Our mission is bringing whatever is good and positive in the world into India and showcasing India’s strengths to the world.”

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has highlighted the transformative role played by women in the journey towards a developed India, underlining the government’s focus on women-led development over the past 11 years.

The Prime Minister said that our mothers, sisters and daughters have seen times when they had to face difficulties at every step. But today they are not only participating actively in the resolution of a developed India, but are also setting examples in every field from education to business. Shri Modi further added that the successes of Nari Shakti in the last 11 years are a matter of pride for all citizens.

The Prime Minister noted that the NDA Government has redefined women-led development through a series of impactful initiatives. These include ensuring dignity through the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, financial inclusion via Jan Dhan accounts, and empowerment at the grassroots level.

He cited Ujjwala Yojana as a milestone that brought smoke-free kitchens to several homes. He also highlighted how MUDRA loans have enabled lakhs of women to become entrepreneurs and pursue their dreams independently. The provision of houses in women’s names under the PM Awas Yojana has also made a remarkable impact on their sense of security and empowerment.

The Prime Minister also recalled the Beti Bachao Beti Padhao campaign, which he described as a national movement to protect the girl child.

Shri Modi affirmed that in all sectors- including science, education, sports, StartUps, and the armed forces-women are excelling and inspiring several people.

The Prime Minister shared these remarks through a series of posts on X;

"हमारी माताओं-बहनों और बेटियों ने वो दौर भी देखा है, जब उन्हें कदम-कदम पर मुश्किलों का सामना करना पड़ता था। लेकिन आज वे ना सिर्फ विकसित भारत के संकल्प में बढ़-चढ़कर भागीदारी निभा रही हैं, बल्कि शिक्षा और व्यवसाय से लेकर हर क्षेत्र में मिसाल कायम कर रही हैं। बीते 11 वर्षों में हमारी नारीशक्ति की सफलताएं देशवासियों को गौरवान्वित करने वाली हैं।
