Narendra Modi
The power and energy sectors are the biggest constituents of the infrastructure sector. If you ignore them, no development will happen.
I don't carry the burden of the past or the madness of the future. I live in the present.
We will explore the mysteries of science and harness the power of technology and innovation. We will realise the opportunities of the digital world. Our youth will learn more from - and with - each other.
The government's job is good governance for everybody. My government will make policies; if you fit into it, come on board, or stay where you are. My job is not to spoon-feed anyone.
The pace at which people are taking to digital technology defies our stereotypes of age, education, language and income.
Our vision and commitment is towards the country's progress, its place in the world and the happiness of its people.
We should work with the principle that a work that can be done at a lower level should never be escalated to a higher level.
India is a democracy; it is in our DNA.
Indians felt despondent about Indian governance. Changing that atmosphere of gloom was a very challenging task, and I faced many difficulties in rectifying the situation and bringing back confidence and hope.
The world has crafted a beautiful balance of collective action - common but differentiated responsibility and respective capabilities.
A national festival is an occasion to refine and rebuild the national character.
The diversity of India, of our civilization, is actually a thing of beauty, which is something we are extremely proud of.
We walk together, we move together, we think together, we resolve together, and together we take this country forward.
I believe mutual respect for one another and cooperation should be the basis for relationships with foreign nations.
Unless and until you inspire the people, you will not get results. Imposition will never give you the results. Inspiration will always give you the results.
People's blessings give you the power to work tirelessly. The only thing required is commitment.
I always say the strength of democracy lies in criticism. If there is no criticism, that means there is no democracy. And if you want to grow, you must invite criticism. And I want to grow; I want to invite criticism.
In the political system, we are a team; politics and bureaucracy, we are a team. The politicians, bureaucrats and the people, we are a team.
My government is working for the common man. Our priority is the poor of the country. We want good governance through a dynamic and seamless government.
E-governance is easy governance, effective governance, and also economic governance. E-governance paves the way for good governance.
