Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], June 10 : As Prime Minister Narendra Modi completes 11 years in office, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday stated that India is the only economy in the world that has doubled in one decade.
"Before 2014, we were a fragile and unstable economy--India ranked 11th in the World. In the last 11 years, it has climbed and is now the fourth-largest economy in the world. When India was celebrating its 75th Independence Day, under the leadership of PM Modi, we surpassed Britain, the country which had ruled over India for almost 200 years... India is the only economy that has doubled in one decade," said UP CM Yogi Adityanath as PM Modi completed 11 years in office.
"India's per-capita income also doubled in these 11 years, while exports surged--projecting India to become the world's third-largest economy by 2027," he added.
In an attack on the opposition parties, the Uttar Pradesh CM said, "Family and dynastic politics fuel casteism and harm the social unity of the country... We have to end dynastic politics to avoid repeating the mistakes of history and losing our independence again."
"Now, we have changed our nature concerning our response to terrorism, that was before 2014 - that India favours peace. PM Modi, by giving a new normal, has changed the entire concept - we will live in peace with friends, but if someone imposes war on us, induces terrorism in our country and is a threat to our security, the response will be surgical strike, air strike and Operation Sindoor - we have shown it with made-in-India and the world has realised India's strength - just a few days back," said UP CM Yogi Adityanath.
CM Yogi further said that governance is now based on the satisfaction of everyone and the appeasement of none; the country has witnessed it in 11 years.
