New York: Describing America as India's "natural global partner", Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the complementary strengths of the two democracies can be used for inclusive and broad-based development to transform lives across the globe. "The US is our natural global partner. India and the US embody the enduring and universal relevance of their shared values," Modi wrote in an op-ed in the The Wall Street Journal.
He said the thriving Indian-American community in the US is a metaphor for the potential of India-US partnership, and for the possibilities of an environment that nurtures enterprise and rewards hard work. Ahead of his arrival in New York for a five-day US trip, the Prime Minister said India and the US have a fundamental stake and many shared interests in each other's success. Modi will address the 69th session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA) on Saturday."That is also the imperative of our partnership. And it will be of great value in advancing peace, security and stability in the Asia and Pacific regions; in the unfinished and urgent task of combating terrorism and extremism; and in securing our seas, cyber space and outer space, all of which now have a profound influence on our daily lives," he said.
Modi said the complementary strengths of India and the US can be used for inclusive and broad-based global development to transform lives across the world. "This is a moment of flux in the global order. I am confident in the destiny of our two nations, because democracy is the greatest source of renewal and, with the right conditions, offers the best opportunity for the human spirit to flourish," Modi said. "With sensitivity to each other's point of view and the confidence of our friendship, we can contribute to more concerted international efforts to meet the pressing global challenges of our times," he said. Modi said that the country will be open and friendly for business and ideas to make it a new global manufacturing hub."We will create world-class infrastructure that India badly needs to accelerate growth and meet people's basic needs. We will make our cities and towns habitable, sustainable and smart; and we will make our villages the new engines of economic transformation," Modi said.
"'Make in India' is our commitment — and an invitation to all — to turn India into a new global manufacturing hub. We will do what it takes to make it a reality," he wrote in an op-ed article in The Wall Street Journal. Modi said India will pursue its dreams in partnership with its international friends. "History tells us that India's natural instinct is to be open to the world. India will be open and friendly — for business, ideas, research, innovations and travel," Modi said. "In the coming months, you will feel the difference even before you begin your travel to India."Modi said, "There is a high tide of hope for change in India." Modi said that 1.25 billion people spoke unequivocally this May for political stability, good governance and rapid development, adding that India has a government with a majority in the Lok Sabha, for the first time in 30 years. "A young nation with 800 million people under age 35, India is brimming with optimism and confidence. The young people's energy, enthusiasm and enterprise are India's greatest strength. "Unleashing those attributes is my government's biggest mission," he said. "We will pursue this mission by eliminating unnecessary laws and regulations, making bureaucratic processes easier and shorter, and ensuring that our government is more transparent, responsive and accountable. "It has been said that doing the thing right is as important as doing the right thing," he said.
