Prime Minister Narendra Modi, currently visiting Gujarat for three days, evoked India as a realm of boundless opportunities and noted its role as a steadfast anchor amidst a world marked by growing unpredictability.

The Prime Minister emphasized that despite the ongoing progress and achievements in various sectors, inflation remains managed in India. He highlighted the nation's record-breaking agricultural production, its leading position in the production of milk, generic medicines, and vaccines, as well as its significant role as the largest global consumer of mobile data.
India also stands as the second-largest manufacturer of mobile devices, hosts the third-largest start-up ecosystem, and is recognized among the top three countries in solar energy production.
Highlighting strong global confidence in India, Modi said, “Today every global expert and institution is bullish about India. IMF has described India as an engine of global growth. S&P after 18 years upgrades India’s ratings. Fitch Ratings appreciates India’s macro stability and fiscal credibility. The world trust’s India because we are seeing a period of certainty in the midst of great global uncertainty.”

Speaking before a gathering of eminent industrialists including Mukesh Ambani, Chairman of Reliance Industries, Karan Adani, Managing Director of Adani Ports and SEZ, and BK Goenka, CMD of Welspun Group, the Prime Minister said, “Today India has political stability, policy continuity, the neo-middle class is growing and their purchasing power is increasing. All these factors have made India a country of infinite possibilities... This is the correct and the right time for global and domestic investors to take advantage of these possibilities.”
Reassuring investors on reforms, the Prime Minister added, “I want to assure the investors present here that our (government’s) reform express is not going to stop.
"India’s reform journey has moved towards institutional transformation... I also assure you that your investments here (in Gujarat) will give you fabulous returns".
Some of India's most prominent business leaders, who were in attendance at the event in Rajkot, expressed that the nation's development under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi has not only redefined the economy, but also instilled a renewed sense of national pride and forward-thinking goals.
Heaping praises on the PM, Mukesh Ambani, Chairman of Reliance Industries, said, “You have restored to India, its civilisational self belief. Never in the history of independent India have we seen so much hope, self confidence and vibrancy in India as we do now. Your vision has reshaped India’s trajectory for the next 50 years and more. History will record that the Modi-era is when India moved from potential to performance, from aspiration to action, from being a follower to becoming a global force.”

Similar views were also expressed by Karan Adani, Managing Director, Adani Ports and SEZ Ltd. “Under your leadership, India has undergone a fundamental transformation — not just in scale, but in our mindset. You have taught the nation to think long term, to build institutions instead of announcements, and to see development not as a series of projects, but as a civilisational mission. From reforming governance and infrastructure to restoring India’s global confidence, you have redefined what decisive leadership looks like in a democracy. Today, India does not merely aspire to grow — it aspires to lead, to set standards, and to shape the future of the world,” he adds.
