New Delhi: PM Narendra Modi on Sunday said the growing influence of India helped in safely bringing back its citizens from war-hit Ukraine through Operation Ganga.

“Big countries of the world are finding it difficult to do so. But it is the growing influence of India that we have brought thousands of students back to our homeland,” he said.  

PM Narendra Modi made the comment as he inaugurated the Golden Jubilee celebration of Symbiosis University, Pune, on Sunday.

He also inaugurated Symbiosis Arogya Dham. Governor Maharashtra Shri Bhagat Singh Koshiyari was among those present on the occasion.

Congratulating the students, faculty and alumni of Symbiosis on the occasion, the Prime Minister noted the motto of the institute ‘Vasudhaiv Kutumbkam’ and said that in the form of students from various countries, this modern institution is representing India’s ancient tradition.

“Knowledge should spread far and wide, knowledge should become a medium to connect the whole world as one family, this has been our culture. I am glad that this tradition is still alive in our country,” he said.

The Prime Minister underlined the confidence of New India and mentioned that India is among the largest economies of the world and maintains the third largest start up ecosystem of the world.

“Missions like Startup India, Stand Up India, Make in India and Aatmnirbhar Bharat are representing your aspirations. Today's India is innovating, improving, and influencing the whole world,” he said.

The Prime Minister said that Punekars know very well how India showed its prowess to the world in the context of Corona vaccination.

The Prime Minister underscored the changed mood of the country.

He said, “Your generation is fortunate in a way that it has not suffered the damaging impact of the earlier defensive and dependent psychology. If this change has come in the country, then the first credit of it also goes to all of you, goes to our youth.”

The Prime Minister said that India has emerged as global leader in the sectors which were previously considered out of reach. India has become the second largest mobile manufacturer in the world.
