New Delhi, 30 th Sept 2023: Former Union Cabinet Minister and senior BJP leader Shri Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi today said here that Shri Narendra Modi has proved to be a tested-trusted “Global Hero of Ground Zero" by depreciating dynastic dominance through decisive delivery and development.

Addressing BRICS CCI Chambers of Commerce and Industry’s “Indian Brand and Leadership Conclave 2023” in New Delhi, Shri Naqvi said that Modi Ji's perfect, potential performance with passion of "never let it rest till your good is better and your better is best" has proved that the democracy can deliver with decisive determination without dynastic dominance in governance.

Shri Naqvi said that a brand of any product or personality is proved potential and perfect “not by chance but by choice”. Credibility of a product and reliability of production is paramount to convert people's habits into hysteria for a brand or Brand Ambassador. Integrity and acceptability ensures global glamour and grace of a product and popularity.

Shri Naqvi said that technology and connectivity revolution has made the world smaller and the competition bigger. The people keep a close watch on the business, political, economic, cultural, religious, educational, administrative activities of every part of the world. That’s why "keep your eyes on sky and feet on ground" so if you fell down, you can stand up easily. Maintaining the global credibility of a personality, product, industry or institution is necessity of today’s digital demography.

Shri Naqvi said that technology must be saved from the “confinement of chronology”. “Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.” That is why transformation, conviction, commitment and credibility have become an effective and successful formula for perfect products.

Shri Naqvi said that today, the internet, information technology, social networking sites, and digital development has brought revolutionary changes in the techniques of progress not only in Bharat but also in the entire world.

Shri Naqvi said that while Bharat is one of the fastest growing economies of the world, it has also emerged as a favourite global digital destination. Bharat is the fifth largest economy of the world after the US, China, Japan and Germany. Bharat’s GDP has reached to 3.17 Trillion Dollars and it is expected to grow at the rate of 6.5 % in 2023-24; Bharat’s foreign exchange reserves has touched to 600 Billion Dollars and according to International Monetary Funds, Bharat is likely to become the third largest economy of the world by 2027-28.

Bharat has emerged as a Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) powerhouse leaving China far behind. Bharat received FDI of about 83.57 Billion Dollars in 2021-22. Large consumer market, political stability and decisive leadership are the main reasons behind these tremendous achievements. Bharat’s consumer market has increased to 1.5 Trillion Dollars and it is expected to become the world’s third largest by reaching at 6 Trillion Dollars by 2030.

Shri Naqvi said that today, Bharat’s companies, be it from public sector or private sector, have become the “best brand” of the entire world. A total of eight companies from Bharat have been featured in the recent Fortune Global 500 list. After Prime Minister Shri Modi’s “Make in India” initiative, Bharat has become a “global manufacturing hub” as most of the world’s largest companies are setting up their manufacturing units in the country. Bharat has become the world’s second largest mobile phone manufacturer and the country will become the world’s largest automobile market by 2028; Bharat has also achieved record export target of goods and services worth 770 Billion Dollars in 2022.

Shri Naqvi said that these are the growth stories which have changed the world’s perspective towards Bharat as the country has become a stable and credible business destination due to good governance, revolutionary reforms and effective leadership.

On the occasion, Shri Naqvi was conferred with the “Leader of Hope” award for his exemplary contribution and unwavering commitment to public welfare. Several companies were awarded for better branding which included Indian Oil, Tata Steel, Reliance, Bajaj Allianz, Ashok Leyland, Haier Appliances, Red FM, Nippon Paints etc. A large number of prominent people from media, corporate, PR, branding, film, art, culture and industry graced the occasion.
