“When I spoke to you last, I promised quick and bold measures to restore our sick economy to health.”
“We have taken the first step to fulfill that promise. This is the beginning.”
“Desperate maladies call for desperate remedies.”
“Our message was simple — you cannot import if you do not export.”
“My objective is to make India truly self-reliant.”
“Self-reliance is not a mere slogan for me.”
“My motto is — trade, not aid.”
“Aid is a crutch. Trade builds pride.”
“We believe that a bulk of government regulations and controls on our economic activity have outlived their utility.”
“Friends, it will be dishonest for me to pretend that the job of repairing our economy will be easy, quick, or smooth.”
