Kochi, Aug 22: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s leadership India\u2019s economy has moved up sharply, and called upon the people of the country to put in their utmost effort to take it to the top in every field in the world.
He, however, expressed regret that Kerala \u201cremains\u201d where it was 11 years ago, and blamed the \u201cstagnation\u201d caused by Communist ideology as holding back the southern state.
Speaking after inaugurating the Manorama News Conclave 2025 here, Shah contrasted the current government\u2019s record with that of previous administrations, saying India had long been a victim of economic instability.
\u201cDuring the leadership of Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee, India\u2019s economy stood at 11th place. The only good thing the Congress government managed in its 10 years was that they did not let it slip to 12th,\u201d he said.
In the past 11 years, Prime Minister Modi had taken the country from the 11th position to becoming the world\u2019s fourth-largest economy.
\u201cUntil we reach the pinnacle and build a great India, no one has the right to rest. When the Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav was celebrated, Modi Ji set a goal that during this journey from 75 to 100 years of independence, all 1.4 billion citizens must put in their utmost effort and take the nation to the top in every field in the world,\u201d Shah said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
