When you have a PM with such a strong commitment to modernising India. If you look at the decisions that are taken, it is really an extraordinary period. It’s great privilege to participate in it. Second reason – the external and domestic dynamic has become much closer. Third reason is India itself. This is no longer the era where people are satisfied with the basics,” said Union Minister S Jaishankar in his address after winning NDTV’s ‘India First’ Award
