Facebook and Modi
Mark Zuckerberg had declared the visit of Indian Prime Minister at
Facebook headquarter earlier in September and asked users to post questions for
Modi. More than 37,000 comments had been posted as reply. But Indian smart
Prime Minister Modi was warmly welcomed and then questioned at the townhall at
the Facebook headquarters in Menlo Park, near San Francisco in California by
the inventor and CEO Mark Zuckerberg with a few questions in such short time
before an audience over 1000. Zuckerberg said that he was impressed by Modi for
his star-hood in social media.
Make in
India
‘Make in
India’ is a project projected by the PM of India .It was asked if it would be a
success. He compared the project with the turning of a train. He said that
turning a scooter is easy but turning a train is difficult, not impossible.180
million bank accounts have been opened within 100 days. He said India has the fastest growing economy now.
Indian Prime Minister said, “My dream is to become a 20-trillion-dollar economy.
India at this point needs both physical and digital infrastructure,”.
"What is the secret to make
in India?"
The availability of low cost manufacturing,
skill, man power, raw materials is the secret to make in India. India is a
paradise for the investors. 3Ds as
demographic dividend, democracy and demand will make ‘make in India’ a grand
success. He also refers to fourth D - Deregulation.
Using Social
media
Zuckerberg
asked if Modi knew the potential of social media when he started using it. Modi
said he had not thought of becoming the Indian Prime Minister when he had
started to use social media. Out of curiosity he took. Modi had not fortune to
have gained much knowledge and education. But his demand has been compensated
by social media.
A strong
bond is created with social media. The comment of Modi is being voted to
establish if he is right or wrong. Social media helps you rectify yourself.
Social media is a strength of a democracy. Instant updated news is being
larked. We can know of an instant event out of the world. Government’s
alertness is what can make it to take corrective measures with the help of such
information
Digital Infrastructure, Jobs, Investment
We need both highways and i-ways in India. 6 lakh villages in
India will be connected via fibre optic cables. People need infrastructure. You
will get such places in recent future. There is enough money in the world. We
invite all kind of investment there.
Modi about His Mother
Indian PM thanked parents of Zuckerberg at first for their son and his work. Modi
became emotional when he was asked about his mother. He said that he came from
a poor family and he never thought of becoming a Prime Minister in the world’s
largest democracy. A tea-seller has become a Prime Minister! Unbelievable he
thought. He thanked the country for such reception. His father is no more. His
mother is 90 years old. She works herself for her. She is not educated. But she
has eyes on television to watch events. His mother, in their childhood, used to
go to neighbours to clean the dishes and fill water only to earn livelihood.
Thus one can imagine the struggle of a mother. He saluted such mothers.
Role of
women in India's growth
Modi
clear out his notion about women empowerment. He said that there are so many
cultures, civilizations and religions, but no religion is there except Indian
where one can find female goddess. There are Durga, Kali, Amba(Saraswati) as
female goddesses in Indian societies.
He warned
that if we block 50% that is women , no progress can be found. They must be the
decision making persons.To achieve economic goal, women must walk shoulder to
shoulder with men. ‘ Beti bachao beti parao’ programme has been told as a
government initiative for spreading the education for the women.
A large
number of women will be found in health sector. Reservation for the women has
been guaranteed by some territories in police department.
