The Prime Minister, while addressing the appointees on the occasion, said, “During the ‘Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav’, when the country is working on the path of development, it is a great honour to get the opportunity to work as a government employee. The people of this country have taken the resolution to make India a developed country.”
He said that the next 25 years are very important for India.

PM Modi’s statement on the banking sector of India

Lashing out at the previous government, PM Modi said during their rule the banking sector witnessed massive destruction.

PM Modi said, “Today India is one of those countries where the banking sector is considered to be the strongest but this was not the situation nine years ago. Our banking sector has seen massive destruction during the previous government. Today, we are able to make digital transactions but nine years ago, phone banking was not for 140 crore people. People who were close to a specific family used to call Banks and provided them loans worth thousands of crores and these loans were never repaid. This ‘phone banking scam’ was one of the biggest scams during the previous government.”
