New York [USA], September 22 (ANI): Asserting that India now doesn’t wait for the opportunities, but it creates them, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said five petals of ‘Pushp’ will pave the way for a developed India.
Addressing an Indian diaspora event at the Nassau Coliseum in New York, PM Modi said India has created opportunities for new launching pads in every sector in the last 10 years.
“Today, India is a land of opportunities. Now, India doesn’t wait for the opportunities, it creates them! In the last ten years, India has created opportunities for new launching pads in every sector. In just a decade, 25 crore people were lifted out of poverty. This was possible because we changed the old thoughts and approach. We focussed on empowering the poor. We connected more than 50 crore with the banking system,” he said.
“You may remember this word ‘Pushp’ which means flower, I define it as ‘P’ for progressive Bharat, ‘U’ for unstoppable Bharat, ‘S’ for spiritual Bharat, ‘H’ for humanity first which India has dedicated itself to and ‘P’ for prosperous India…All five petals of ‘Pushp’ or the flower which will make Viksit Bharat,” he added.
