PM Modi gives new mantra for India’s progress in 21st century

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said that the mantra of the ’21st Century India’ is “Will for progress, work for progress, wealth for progress, plan for progress and preference for progress” and the national master plan will give ‘gatishakti’ to development plans in the nation.

Speaking at the lunch event of the PM GatiShakti plan here, the Prime Minister said, “We are laying a foundation for the next 25 years. This national master plan will give ‘gatishakti’ to development plans of the 21st century and will help in the timely completion of these plans.”

“Earlier, we used to see ‘work in progress’ boards everywhere and people started to believe that it will never be completed. It showed distrust of people towards the government. But we changed it. We planned well and introduced ‘gati’ in development projects,” PM Modi said slamming the previous governments who were earlier in the power in the Centre.
