New Delhi, July 17 (NationPress) By all accounts, Mukund Purohit -- an Indo-Canadian entrepreneur and global trade advisor -- epitomizes the essence of bilateral innovation. During discussions with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Purohit emphasizes a shared conviction that India's destiny hinges not solely on policy but on the transformative power of ideas -- millions of them.
In insights shared on 'Modi Story', Purohit recounted the Prime Minister’s persistent message during their interactions, whether at Vibrant Gujarat or other international platforms: “Let’s start with Gujarat. If even 55 million Gujaratis dared to dream every single day -- dreams of innovation and action -- multiply that by 365 days, and you're witnessing a revolution, not fantasy.”
This grassroots philosophy underpins Viksit Bharat, a national initiative aimed at realizing a fully developed India by 2047.
Purohit notes that PM Modi envisions a nation where 250 million young individuals dedicate merely one hour each day contemplating the future of the country.
“That’s more than just time,” Purohit adds, echoing PM Modi’s vision that one hour can translate into billions of hours yearly -- with each hour spawning ideas capable of changing lives.
Purohit elaborates that in a nation of 1.4 billion, if just one-fourth of the populace devoted one to two hours daily to civic, creative, or entrepreneurial thought, the outcome would be extraordinary.
Currently, numerous startups are flourishing across Indian cities. Incubators and government initiatives are empowering founders.
Job creators are emerging from dormitories, tea stalls, and rural laboratories -- many poised to evolve into significant business leaders, in line with PM Modi’s vision.
Purohit emphasizes that PM Modi’s vision encompasses youth engaging on social media with empathy and creativity, moving away from a blame culture towards constructive action.
“No bureaucratic impetus is required when ideas originate from within,” he stated. This represents self-driven transformation.
For Purohit, PM Modi’s vision transcends political aspirations; it seeks to awaken a national identity that is bold, imaginative, and relentless.
Viksit Bharat serves as the framework for that identity -- a blueprint where dreams materialize into startups, thoughts evolve into policies, and civic responsibility transforms into innovation.
PM Modi’s belief is straightforward: India need not await development to trickle down. It can rise organically -- fueled not just by funding, but by vision, collective intellect, and a commitment to action. Viksit Bharat is more than a slogan; it is the pulsating heart of India.
That, Purohit asserts, is the message Prime Minister Modi aims to convey through TheModiStory.
Beyond India’s borders, Purohit remains a significant influence. He serves as Co-Chair of the Canadian Friends of India and has earned prestigious accolades, including the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal and the Canada-India Friendship Medal for his contributions to bilateral relations.
