PM Modi praises an Investor’s social media post on India: Says, ‘Love your optimism’

On Saturday, Indian-American investor and businessman Balaji S. Srinivasan was praised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his positive outlook on the investment climate in India. Balaji wrote on X, the former Twitter platform, that investing in India is helping India grow. He also mentioned that he prefers to invest in Indians and India itself because Bharat has room to grow. “I love your optimism and will add that the people of India are trendsetters and trailblazers when it comes to innovation,” the investor wrote in a lengthy post defending his position, to which the PM nodded. We invite international investment in our country. India is not going to let you down.”

Does the growth of a startup indicate that it is flawless? that it’s the world’s best? that you intend to use it immediately for everything? Naturally, the answer is no. However, you may begin to use it, invest in it, and tell your friends about it. And that’s how I see India, too: as a nation that is both ancient and emerging at the same time,” Balaji wrote.

In response to a social media user who dubbed him the “biggest cheerleader of India who does not stay in India,” Balaji wrote a post. “It’s not about having to’stay’ in one place to invest in it as a ‘cheerleader’; just think about the scenario in which every company had to rely entirely on funding from the neighbors across the street. Balaji retorted, “Instead, it’s about being an international investor searching for the best talent globally and discovering a lot of it in India.
