India has emerged as a new ray of hope amid global uncertainties, and the world looks at it as an important pillar of stability, a trusted friend, and an engine of growth in the global economy, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Wednesday, speaking at the inauguration of the 10th edition of the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit.
“The world looks at India as an important pillar of stability. A friend who can be trusted, a partner who believes in people-centric development, a voice that believes in global good, a voice of the Global South, an engine of growth in the global economy, a technology hub for finding solutions, a powerhouse of talented youth and a democracy that delivers,” Mr. Modi said in his inaugural address, in the presence of several world leaders, business tycoons, diplomats, and policymakers.
