Recalling his earlier remarks on the importance of the current decade for India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said that even today, the world is recognizing that the current decade belongs to India, adding that this is the most important decade since the country got independence.Addressing the Republic Summit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “I had once said that this decade will belong to India. Now, even the world is saying that this decade belongs to India. This is an important decade to fulfill the dreams of ‘Viksit Bharat’. This is the most important decade of independent India; that is why, from Red Fort, I said, ‘Yahi samay hai, Sahi samay hai’.”
Further underlining the importance of the current decade, the Prime Minister said that this decade will witness the strengthening of the foundations of India, which will help the country march towards becoming a developed India.
