"Today, the whole world is looking at India and you. The policies of the government and commitment and investment are becoming the foundation of global development. Investors across the world are keen to come to India. World leaders are filled with positivity for India. This is the golden chance for the Indian industry and we should not lose this opportunity," Modi said as quoted by PTI.

PM Modi also highlighted several budget measures designed to boost the MSME sector, which he noted generates millions of jobs. He urged the industry to partner with the government in positioning India as a global leader, especially in emerging sectors.

Reiterating his government’s unwavering resolve, Modi affirmed that their commitment to key national objectives, such as achieving a USD 5 trillion economy, Aatmanirbhar Bharat, and a developed India, remains resolute.
