    From 'Make in India' to 'Make for World'

    For this, National Infrastructure Pipeline Project will help, he announced.

  • Speaking of what his government achieved in the last few years, PM Modi said the money was transferred into bank accounts of poor. "Earlier, no one could imagine that if Rs. 1 was dispersed from Delhi, the complete amount would reach the poor. But the situation has now changed," he added.
