It is easy to turn a scooter, but not a train with 40 bogeys. This is such a big country, changes are constant and widespread.
India offers demographic dividend, democracy and demand...3D. I have added a new D. De-regulation.
It is my conviction that highways and I-ways have similar importance these days. My effort is to connect all 600,000 villages with optical fiber networks in the next five years.
In China, the social network is a bit different. But I am active there too.
A good government is one with many information channels, those that give real-time information.
Social media changed my thought process and connected me to the rest of the world. And as I started connecting, the world started accepting me as I was. Nothing could be more satisfying.
I dream of making India a $20 trillion economy. For that, I am pushing for agriculture, manufacturing and service sectors.
According to the World Health Organization, an average of Rs. 6500 per person was lost in India due to lack of cleanliness and hygiene. Swachh Bharat would make a significant impact on public health and in safeguarding income of the poor, ultimately contributing to the national economy.
I am seeing that Gandhi is looking through these specs that whether we have made India clean or not, what we have done and what we have done.
It is our social responsibility as citizens of India to help fulfil Gandhiji's vision of Clean India, by his 150th birth anniversary in 2019.
We must acknowledge the importance of teachers to the society.
We must question why the smartest students don't choose to become teachers.
It takes time to change established mindset. It is a difficult task. But we have five years. This is not about Modi... Modi is only one of its 1.2 billion people... This is a people's task.
We want to make nation-building a people's movement.
