“Today, under the leadership of Shri Modi ji, India is reaching new heights in sectors such as manufacturing, digital payments, startups, semiconductors, defence production and renewable energy, with a rapidly growing economy.

“In this era of war and instability, India has emerged as a significant global voice for peace and harmony,” Shah added.

“Whatever I am today is because of the people of India”: PM Modi

PM Modi also said that when he took oath as the Chief Minister of Gujarat, he had not imagined that he would reach this point in his life.
