Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday commended the people for the 7.8 per cent GDP growth rate, noting that the feat was accomplished despite wars, instability, and supply chain disruptions.
In a video message on Instagram, the prime minister said that if people continue to stress on Swadeshi and self-reliance, the country’s youth will be presented with a developed India in the 100th
year of Independence.
He also asked people not to go for foreign holidays, host weddings abroad, or buy gold unless necessary.
“I want to congratulate the people of the country for 7.8 per cent GDP growth. It has been possible due to their collective resolve and efforts. India has achieved this milestone despite conflicts, wars and instability everywhere,” Modi said.
