Leading the World

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the much-anticipated ‘Ahlan Modi’ event at the Zayed Sports City Stadium in Abu Dhabi, UAE. While addressing the event, possibly one of the largest diaspora gatherings in recent times, PM Modi promised to make India a fully developed nation by 2047 and lauded the deep-rooted friendship between the two nations. Modi expressed profound gratitude towards the attendees hailing from various parts of the UAE and different states of India. Modi also exuded confidence by saying that he will continue to accelerate the pace of development across the country in his third term. The country in the world whose economy is growing at a rapid pace? It’s our Bharat. The world’s largest milk producer is our Bharat. Which country in the world is the 2nd largest manufacturer? he asked. Expressing gratitude for the BAPS Hindu Mandir in Abu Dhabi, PM Modi said that this couldn’t have been possible without his love and support. “I consider the construction of BAPS temple here as a reflection of your love for India and your vision for the bright future of UAE. This couldn’t have been possible without your support. During our first meeting, I had just put up a simple request for you to look into it and you took a prompt decision, asking me to ‘Put your finger on any piece of land, you will get it’. Perhaps, this level of love and trust showcases the unique relationship,” Modi said.
