India and China growing at similar pace: Modi

New Delhi, Sept 21 (IBNS): Days after Chinese President Xi Jinping visited India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that India does not need to become anything else and was at par with China.
"India does not need to become anything else. India must become only India. This is a country that once upon a time was called the golden bird. We have fallen from where we were before. But now we have the chance to rise again," Modi said in a world exclusive interview to CNN.
 
He said both India and China are growing at the same pace.
 
"If you see the details of the last five or 10 centuries, you will see that India and China have grown at similar paces. Their contributions to global GDP have risen in parallel, and fallen in parallel. Today's era once again belongs to Asia. India and China are both growing rapidly, together," said the PM.
 
Modi said that he had great faith in the people and their talent. 
 
"It is my absolute belief that Indians have unlimited talent. I have no doubt about our capabilities. I have a lot of faith in the entrepreneurial nature of our 1.25 billion people. There is a lot of capability. And I have a clear road map to channel it," Modi told the channel.
