"They think that we are everyone's boss and how is India moving forward so fast?

Countries of the world are buying our goods," he said when Narendra Modi became the prime minister in 2014, only Rs 600 crore worth of Indian defence products were exported to other countries."But now, we are exporting defence products of more than Rs 24,000 crore to countries of the world.

We cannot kill people after asking their religion. We do not believe in murder. We do not even kill ants. We have resolved that we will kill people (terrorists) not by looking at their religion, but by looking at their deeds," he said that India's clear stand is that "we will not spare anyone who instigates us."Referring to the rail coach unit, the minister said it is a big gift for the Raisen and Vidisha region in MP and will provide employment to 5,000 Pradesh is moving ahead rapidly in terms of industries as the state has recently received an investment proposal of more than Rs 30 lakh crore, he noted."If the leadership is excellent, development happens rapidly.
