We should have an inclusive growth model in India. Agro-interest is also as important as industrial interest.

If India has to achieve exponential growth, it would have to be on the back of strong growth in the manufacturing sector.

We are a heterogeneous society. We have to accept that. Growth has to be such that the most backward sections also benefit from it. Otherwise, it will be a very imbalanced growth.

I don't think one party has a bad vision over the other party. I have no doubts that every Indian and every Indian political leadership would like to see this country get to a much better level. We would all like to see inclusive growth.

India is the most competitive manufacturing destination on this planet. If we are able to take advantage of that competitiveness for our domestic markets, this country would be humming with activity; industrial production will grow at 10-11% per year.

India is the second biggest defence procurer in the world after the U.S.
