– In the year 2001, Atal ji dedicated it to the country. Since then, till today, about 50,000 executives have graduated from here. Today ISB is one of the top business schools in Asia.
– India is in first position in smartphone data consumption, and in the second position in terms of the number of internet users in the world. It’s in the second position in the global retail index.
– India has the world’s third-biggest startup ecosystem and third-biggest consumer market. Today, India is the fastest-growing economy in the group of G20 countries.
– If we compare last eight years with the previous three decades, we’ll see that reforms couldn’t take place despite their need, due to a lack of political willpower
and instability. The country couldn’t take big decisions. After 2014, India is witnessing political willpower and reforms.

Bengaluru, just hours ahead of the arrival the Prime Minister – Modi said, “‘Pariwarwaadi’ party is not just a political problem but the biggest enemy of the
