Exuding confidence that India will develop all the requisite national strengths that will make it a leading power in the times to come if the Narendra Modi government retains power, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Friday said the alternative before the country is a ''return to the failed policies of the past, one that divide our society, diminish our economic achievements and are pessimistic about our prospects''.
About the changes underway in India, he said the country did not give the importance that it should have to manufacturing and technology development in the past. That started to change in 2014 with the Modi Government and has gathered steam over a decade. It is supported by vast improvements in infrastructure, innovation, education and skilling.
