PM invites Indian diaspora to see new creative India
Ajay Kaul
Port of Spain, Nov 27 (PTI) Identifying education and
business as areas of reconnecting with Indian diaspora, Prime
Minister Manmohan Singh Friday invited them to undertake a
"pilgrimage" to the "new creative India" and be active
partners of the country's development and progress by making
use of investment and business opportunities.
He said India, whose education system was once an envy
of the world, had "lost ground" over last three decades and
his government was committed to correct the situation.
Addressing a reception for Indian community here soon
after his arrival from Washington, Singh told them that India
is on the move and is reaching out to the world with
confidence and in a spirit of live and let live.
Reaching out to the People of Indian Origin, he said,
"You are, for millions of Indians, the most visible symbol of
our own globalisation process... For us, globalisation is a
natural means of linking up with the international community
of Indians."
Education and business are the "two major areas
through which we are reconnecting with the people of Indian
origin worldwide," he said in the capital of Trinidad and
Toboga, whose almost half of 1.3 billion population is of
Indian origin. MORE PTI AKK
