Stressing that the whole country, including Uttar Pradesh, was progressing under the leadership and guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said on Monday that Prime Minister’s approach of looking at any idea, event or issue differently put him in an altogether different category.
He said, “I want to reiterate that the Prime Minister’s approach of looking at any idea, event or issue differently puts you in a different category from other leaders. Where common public representatives see disaster, the Prime Minister’s vision inspires them to see opportunity. Where a common public representative sees a problem, the Prime Minister looks for a solution. While the common man focuses his attention on quick gains, the PM’s foresight makes him look at things from a long-term perspective of a thousand years to come. This is the reason why the Prime Minister appears as the most resplendent star in the world’s leadership sky”, Singh, also Lucknow MP, said at the inauguration of the ground breaking ceremony 4-0 here.
The Defence Minister said that under the leadership of the PM, the country is progressing with the spirit of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas. ”There is no section of the society which does not feel alone or feels left behind in some area. Due to the strong foundation you have laid for India’s Vikas Bhawan in ten years, the public has full confidence that by your third and fourth term, the peak of this Vikas Bhawan will touch the sky,” he said.
Singh said under the guidance of the Prime Minister, UP was today under the leadership of an active and effective Chief Minister, who was committed to taking Uttar Pradesh on the path of development. ”The efforts that CM Yogi Adityanath has made in the last seven years towards creating an investment friendly environment in Uttar Pradesh are the culmination of the GBC taking place in Uttar Pradesh today,” Singh stated.
He said this is just the beginning, the way UP is moving forward under the guidance of PM and leadership of CM Yogi Adityanath, adding that this GCB would prove to be a path breaking ceremony in the direction of bringing investment in UP.
The Defence Minister said he was confident that UP will create new dimensions of development and under the guidance of the PM, ”together we will take the entire country including the state forward on the global stage”.
The Lucknow MP said that there was a time when the meeting of public representatives and industrialists was viewed with great suspicion. ”Any public representative meeting industrialists was considered no less than a political alarm bell. It was believed that the alliance between politicians and industrialists is not good for the development of the nation. No one was going to pay attention to the fact that if politicians and industrialists work together with clear intentions, the nation will progress. This is where the basic difference between an ordinary public representative and a Prime Minister is visible,” he averred.
Since the time when the Prime Minister used to be the Chief Minister of Gujarat, the country has been watching how he, along with industrialists, has brought such a wind of change in Gujarat, the fragrance of which has spread not only in India but far and wide in the world, the Defence Minister said.
”Along with many states of the country, non-BJP ruled states were also moving ahead with the Gujarat model of development. You have made the relationship between industrialists and politicians an essential condition for the development of the country through determination and political correctness,” he stressed.
