My mantra is Development - ​​Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas. It means food on every table, every child in school, a job for everybody and a house with toilet and electricity for every family. This can be achieved through unity. Unity strengthens us. Division weakens us.

World's keenness to engage with India has risen. In such times 'fear of unknown' can be an obstacle. Our diaspora can help overcome this.

Today, across its streets and institutions, in its villages and cities, anchored in equal respect for all faiths; and in the melody of hundreds of its languages and dialects - India lives as one; India grows as one; India celebrates as one.

Entire world today is keen to engage with India. And, our diaspora can play a major role in furthering the country's bond with the world. At the same time, it is also necessary for us to connect and strengthen our bond with the diaspora.

We live in an inter-dependent world. An isolated India is not in our interest.

We walk together, we move together, we think together, we resolve together, and together we take this country forward.
