Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the Bloomberg New Economy Forum in New Delhi and framed India’s economic rise as growth that helps the world rather than comes at anyone’s expense.

He said the true measure of power, technology and knowledge is whether they are used to generate widespread public benefit, describing this as a vision of power to empower.

Modi highlighted India’s macroeconomic strength, including a 7.8 per cent growth rate in the April-June quarter and foreign-exchange reserves above USD 700 billion.

He said India has lifted 250 million people out of poverty over the past decade and pointed to a startup ecosystem that now exceeds 2.5 lakh companies.

More context

He also stressed digital inclusion, democratic values and a direct path between government and citizens, saying technology has helped reduce corruption.

Modi warned that supply chains and technology are increasingly being used as tools of pressure and cast India as a trusted global partner for international growth.

Supportive3

Supportive coverage emphasizes Modi’s economic pitch and presents the forum speech as a showcase for India’s growth story. It highlights claims about robust macroeconomic fundamentals, poverty reduction, startup expansion and digital governance as evidence of broad-based progress. The reporting also notes India’s role in supplying vaccines to more than 100 countries and its first-time hosting of the forum, underscoring international recognition. In this framing, India is cast as a trusted global partner and a country whose technology and innovation should benefit ordinary citizens.

Neutral1

Neutral coverage keeps the focus on what Modi said at the forum rather than on evaluative interpretation. It states that he presented a vision of power to empower, explaining that the real test of power, technology and knowledge is how effectively they generate public benefit. The account is concise and does not expand on policy implications beyond the speech itself. It therefore functions as a straightforward record of Modi’s remarks at the event.
