Prime Minister Narendra Modi: "We are rapidly moving towards becoming the top third economies. This speed came to us from the spirit of reform, perform, and transform. This speed came to us from clear intention and honest efforts. In 2014, Metro was limited to only five cities. And now there is a network of more than 1000 km in 24 cities. Before 2014, about 20,000 km of rail route was electrified. We have electrified more than 40,000 km of rail route in the last 11 years itself. Till 2014, there were only 74 airports in India. Now their number has increased to more than 160. The figures for waterways are also equally impressive. In 2014, only 3 national waterways were operational. Now this number has increased to 30."
Prime Minister Narendra Modi: "The success of Operation Sindoor is due to our technology and the power of 'Make in India' in defence. The youth of Bengaluru and Karnataka have contributed a lot to this."
Prime Minister Narendra Modi: "We are seeing Bangalore emerging as a city that has become a symbol of the rise of the new India... A city that has put India's flag on the global IT map. If there is anything behind Bangalore's success story, it is the hard work and talent of its people."
