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.”

PM Modi’s Green Energy Vision is a Game-Changer for India. Here's what Stats Speak
December 13, 2024

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has spearheaded a transformative push in India's renewable energy sector, positioning the nation as a global leader in sustainable energy initiatives. Under his leadership, India has not only made significant strides in increasing its renewable energy capacity but has also taken on pivotal roles in international renewable energy organizations. Notably, India co-founded the International Solar Alliance (ISA) with France, which aims to promote solar energy usage among its 99 member countries and mobilize substantial investments for solar projects. India's ambitious goal to achieve 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030 reflects this commitment. The nation has successfully installed over 200 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity, making it the first G20 country to fulfill its climate commitments ahead of schedule. PM Kusum has been instrumental in ensuring reduction of dependency on fossil fuels from agriculture sector. Over 4 lakh farmers have benefited from the scheme . The PM Surya Ghar scheme exemplifies this approach by providing financial support for rooftop solar installations, allowing households to become power producers while also generating employment opportunities. This initiative not only promotes renewable energy but also helps families save on electricity costs. The PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, the world’s largest domestic rooftop solar initiative, is transforming India’s energy landscape with a bold vision to supply solar power to one crore households by March 2027

Moreover, the government's focus on energy efficiency is evident in the widespread adoption of LED lighting across homes and infrastructure, significantly reducing power consumption and contributing to lower carbon emissions. These combined efforts illustrate India's comprehensive strategy to transition towards a sustainable energy future while ensuring economic growth and environmental protection.

170% +Increase in Installation of Renewable Energy

2014 – 76 GW
