New Delhi, March 28 (IANS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday spoke about India’s rising prominence and growing stature on the world stage and how the global powers are keenly keeping a watch on the country because of its growth trajectory.

Elaborating on India’s remarkable growth in the past decade, Prime Minister said that the country went to become fifth largest economy, rising from 11th spot, under NDA and added that the world is watching at India with hope and excitement.
“India First has become the mantra of India’s foreign policy”, said PM Modi.

He also underscored that the global community now values India’s opinions, innovations, and efforts like never before.

The Prime Minister also spoke about African Union being made a permanent member during G-20 Summit, and how it was a progressive move to make global systems more participative and democratic.
“Such efforts have established India’s strong presence in the new world order. This is just the beginning, as India’s capabilities on global platforms continue to reach new heights,” he remarked.
