Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today addressed the Economic Times World Leaders Forum 2026. Greeting the assembled dignitaries, policymakers, and business leaders at the World Leaders Forum, the Prime Minister expressed his profound happiness at participating in the prestigious summit. Emphasizing the critical relevance of this year’s theme, ‘Shared Futures’, he noted that the global fluctuations of recent years have undeniably proven that the destinies of all nations are inextricably linked. Observing that the nation has always moved forward with this exact spirit, he pointed out that this was precisely why India’s mantra during its G-20 Presidency remained ‘One Earth, One Family, One Future’. “This sentiment of Shared Future, alongside the responsibility associated with it, actively provides a solution to many problems of this 21st-century world,” remarked Shri Modi.

Addressing widespread global concerns regarding growth, resource weaponization, and mounting distrust, the Prime Minister highlighted that the international community increasingly views India as a bright spot for growth and hope. Underlining the nation’s success in lifting 25 crore citizens out of poverty and maintaining its status as the world’s fastest-growing major economy, PM Modi pointed out the government’s intense focus on ‘Saptadhara’, seven key sectors including manufacturing, technology, and green economics, announced during his Independence Day address. Therefore, the Prime Minister noted, India, today, is undertaking next-generation reforms at the policy level, driving reforms at the governance level, and implementing reforms for ease of living. “Reforms are not a compulsion for us; this is our ultimate commitment and our absolute conviction,” asserted Shri Modi.

Contrasting the current economic environment with the restrictive policies of the past, the Prime Minister humorously detailed the concept of ‘Production Linked Punishment’ (PLP) from the License Raj era, where companies were penalized or forced to destroy goods for exceeding production limits. He criticized the underlying mindset of previous administrations that deliberately maintained scarcity to force citizens into dependency, a practice that severely strangled employment generation.”People with this mindset always wanted a severe shortage of essential items to persist; it was their deliberate policy to keep the citizens in deprivation,” observed Shri Modi.

Highlighting the transformative shift in governance philosophy, the Prime Minister juxtaposed the destructive PLP model with the current Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, demonstrating how a reform in thinking fundamentally changes economic outcomes. He proudly presented the staggering success of the PLI scheme, which alone has attracted Rs 2.5 lakh crore in actual investments, driven Rs 22 lakh crore in production and sales, generated Rs 15 lakh crore in exports, and created over 14 lakh jobs. “Where the punishment model of the previous License Raj increased unemployment, today our incentive model is actively creating lakhs of new jobs,” affirmed Shri Modi.

Attributing the rapid pace of national development to political stability and policy continuity, the Prime Minister outlined a clear roadmap focused heavily on governance-level reforms. He explained the paradigm shift from a restrictive “Prohibited unless permitted” approach to a progressive “Permitted unless prohibited” philosophy, dramatically reducing the need for constant bureaucratic permissions. “The fundamental basis of the relationship between the government and the citizens must be deep trust, not suspicion,” asserted Shri Modi.

Detailing specific legislative advancements reflecting this philosophy, the Prime Minister pointed to the Jan Vishwas Bill, which decriminalized numerous minor procedural offenses, replacing jail time with economic penalties. He further highlighted the systematic removal of over 40,000 compliances and the abolition of more than 1,500 obsolete laws to significantly ease the burden on industries. “When we look at all these massive reforms together, we get a clear idea of exactly how big a burden has been reduced from the shoulders of our businesses,” noted Shri Modi.

Praising the government’s relentless drive to modernize legal frameworks despite political opposition, the Prime Minister celebrated the recent passage of the Bankers’ Books Evidence Bill during the Monsoon session. He explained that replacing a 19th-century British law with modern legislation granting legal recognition to digital banking records will drastically reduce complications and boost the Ease of Doing Business. “This will actively reduce legal complications, massive transparency in the system will increase, and the Ease of Doing Business will significantly rise,” affirmed Shri Modi.

Stressing the vital importance of human-centric governance, the Prime Minister showcased the massive safety upgrades within the Indian Railways, including the installation of electronic interlocking at over 6,500 stations and 10,000 level crossings. With mission-mode elimination of roughly 9,000 unmanned crossings, which successfully reduced train accidents by up to 90 percent compared to pre-2014 levels, Shri Modi said, “Systems must be made in such a way in which there is absolute sensitivity towards every single human life and their precious time”.

Highlighting the dramatic transformation in railway hygiene as a prime example of modern governance, the Prime Minister noted that over 3.6 lakh bio-toilets have been installed in trains since 2014, fundamentally eliminating the issue of human waste on tracks.”This massive change is not just about cleaning; it is fundamentally about the dignity of the passengers, hygiene, and modern governance,” observed Shri Modi.

Emphasizing punctuality as a critical metric of governance quality, the Prime Minister proudly cited the Delhi-Meerut Namo Bharat Rapid Rail and the Delhi Metro, both operating with an exceptional 99.9 percent on-time record, rivaling systems in New York, Hong Kong, and Paris.”This is not just the story of a Metro and Namo Rapid Rail running on time; this is the proud identity of an India rapidly changing with time,” affirmed Shri Modi.

Shifting focus to policy-level reforms, the Prime Minister explained that the government designs proactive, pro-people, and pro-growth policies tailored to the nation’s needs rather than forcing the country to conform to restrictive rules. He cited the historical absurdity where mapping India was illegal for its own citizens, highlighting how the deregulation of geospatial data has since catalyzed immense startup growth. “Policies must be designed strictly according to the actual needs of the country and the people of the country,” asserted Shri Modi.

Illustrating the impact of dismantling shackles, the Prime Minister celebrated the explosive growth of India’s drone industry across agriculture, defence, and content creation, which was entirely impossible under previous restrictive regulations. “We fully freed drone-flying from shackles, and today India’s drone industry is taking an unprecedented flight,” noted Shri Modi.

The Prime Minister championed a paradigm shift viewing border infrastructure as a massive strategic strength rather than a vulnerability. He proudly noted that the Border Roads Organisation (BRO) dedicated 250 infrastructure projects to the nation in 2024 and 2025 alone. “When the defensive thinking fundamentally changed, the entire picture of border infrastructure actively changed as well,” affirmed Shri Modi.

Highlighting groundbreaking structural reforms in highly restricted sectors, the Prime Minister pointed to the Shanti Bill, which successfully opened nuclear energy to the private sector, and the historic restructuring of over 40 ordnance factories into 7 modern corporate entities. He credited these bold moves for supercharging the nation’s self-reliance and boosting defence exports 55 times compared to 2014. “Today India is actively becoming self-reliant for its defence needs too, and our defence export has massively increased,” observed Shri Modi.

Reflecting on the seamless integration of Ease of Living reforms into daily routines, the Prime Minister noted how digital advancements, from ordering groceries and scanning QR codes to instant peer-to-peer money transfers, have become an unremarkable yet revolutionary part of ordinary Indian life.”These incredible things are remarkable, but they are now just a highly efficient part of the life of the common man of India,” remarked Shri Modi.

The Prime Minister emphasized that the transformative changes experienced by the Indian middle class remain a distant dream even in many developed nations. “Because of the reforms India has made, the life of the people that has completely changed is still a distant dream in many developed countries today,” asserted Shri Modi.

Detailing the foundational pillars of India’s digital revolution, the Prime Minister highlighted the nation’s status as having the world’s cheapest data and fastest 5G rollouts. He praised the integration of Aadhaar with mobile and banking services for enabling seamless e-KYC and digital authentication, revolutionizing everything from opening bank accounts to filing income tax returns.”Today if you have to open a bank account, the government has literally brought the bank itself directly to you,” affirmed Shri Modi.

Showcasing the massive impact of telemedicine, the Prime Minister celebrated the e-Sanjeevani platform for facilitating nearly 50 crore tele-consultations, successfully bringing critical healthcare directly to the screens of patients who previously travelled vast distances." Today the doctor is highly accessible and available right at their home, directly on their screen,” noted Shri Modi.

Praising the modernization of the national travel experience, the Prime Minister highlighted the widespread adoption of Digi Yatra at airports and the implementation of Fast Tags on highways, ensuring seamless, non-stop transit.”Time is being massively saved, life is becoming significantly easier, and crores of people are able to securely focus on their progress,” observed Shri Modi.

The Prime Minister asserted that true national transformation requires decisions grounded in long-term impact rather than immediate electoral gains.”Decisions that fundamentally change the country are those whose impact is clearly seen on the ground, taken keeping both the present and the future firmly in mind,” asserted Shri Modi.

Illustrating this sustainable approach, the Prime Minister highlighted the PM Kusum Yojana and the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, which provide massive long-term benefits to farmers and the middle class. He noted that while simply declaring free electricity would have generated massive headlines, the government chose the empowering route of subsidizing rooftop solar plants for over 50 lakh families.” We are decisively determined to have a sun on every roof of every house to provide massive, sustainable energy,” affirmed Shri Modi.

Detailing the profound socio-economic impact of the Surya Ghar scheme, the Prime Minister explained how families are not only eliminating their electricity bills but also generating income by selling surplus power to the grid, enabling them to afford modern appliances and ensuring children sleep peacefully without power cuts. “Whether there are elections or not, this Surya Ghar and its light will permanently remain to benefit the families of the country for years,” remarked Shri Modi.

Promising the continuous expansion of Ease of Living and Ease of Doing Business for the youth, women, farmers, and the middle class, the Prime Minister assured that the administration’s Reform Express will aggressively accelerate its journey to achieve a Viksit Bharat. Highlighting the profound global impact of domestic strength, he expressed deep confidence that securing the nation’s trajectory will inherently bring immense stability to the international community, before concluding his address with heartfelt gratitude to the event organizers. “The more stable India is and the more secure its future, the more the power to give the world a sense of security will be generated from right here,” asserted Shri Modi.

PM’s address at the Economic Times World Leaders Forum 2026

   

Friends,

Today there are many concerns about growth in the world. In recent times the world has seen a very frightening form. Resources are being weaponized. An atmosphere of distrust is bringing many new challenges for the world. But even in such times, the world sees India as a bright spot of growth and hope. In the last 10–12 years, India has lifted 250 million people out of poverty. Not only that, if we talk about the coming days, the IMF forecast is that India will remain the fastest‑growing major economy in the world. And India is continuously taking steps that are accelerating its development.

Friends,

Just last week, on 15th August, from the Red Fort I spoke about the seven streams of seven strengths. Manufacturing, technology and innovation, food processing, green and blue economy – I spoke of seven sectors on which India is highly focused today. And that is why India is carrying out next‑generation reforms at the policy level, to secure our future. Reforms in governance, reforms for ease of living. Last time when I connected with you through this very platform, I had said then too – these reforms are not a compulsion for us. They are our commitment, they are our conviction.

Friends,

In 2014, when our government was formed, since then reforms have changed the direction and condition of the country. I want to give you a very interesting example of this. Perhaps hardly anyone here knows about PLP. Is there anyone who knows about PLP? Raise your hand. So many media stalwarts are sitting here – do you know PLP? And you will be surprised to hear. PLP means Production Linked Punishment. No one knows about this. And another term you surely have heard – PLI. Most people know this. PLI means Production Linked Incentive.

Friends,

These two terms define two different time periods of India. Nowadays it is the age of explainers, so let me explain to you.

Friends,

The young generation today will be shocked to hear that there was a time in our country when if any company produced more than the fixed limit, it was punished. This was the PLP – Production Linked Punishment model of the earlier license‑raj governments. There were even examples that if a factory, seeing higher demand, produced more, it was sent a notice. Forced by this, the company would destroy its own product instead of selling it in the market.

Friends,

Today those who mock Make in India and the Atmanirbhar Bharat campaign – their forefathers’ thinking was exactly this: PLP, Production Linked Punishment. Behind such actions was a particular distorted mentality. People with such mentality always wanted shortages of essential goods to continue. Keeping citizens in deprivation was their policy. They wanted people to fold hands before them, to beg – you understand whom I am talking about. After making people join hands, they would act as if they were doing a favor. That was the way of those governments, and that is why they followed the Production Linked Punishment model. You can imagine, by doing this they strangled the basic principle of employment generation. And the surprising thing is – their courtiers, again I repeat, their courtiers, never raised a voice against it.

Friends,

Every reform begins first with reforming your way of thinking, your mental framework, the range in which you work. Where earlier increasing production brought punishment, today our government gives incentive for increasing production. And today the success of the PLI scheme is being seen by the world. Just because of this one scheme – I am not talking of all schemes, only one – actual investment of about 2.5 lakh crore rupees has taken place. More than 22 lakh crore rupees of production and sales have happened. More than 15 lakh crore rupees of exports have taken place. And more than 14 lakh direct and indirect jobs have been created. And I remind you again – these figures are only of one scheme. Think about it: the punishment model of the earlier license‑raj governments increased unemployment, while today our incentive model is creating lakhs of new jobs.

Friends,

Today in India this rapid development, these rapid reforms are happening because in India – and as Satya just mentioned – there is political stability, there is continuity in our policy. Earlier, those who talked about reforms in the country would make announcements, but later forget them. But we created a clear roadmap for reforms. The main direction of this roadmap has been – reforms at the level of governance! For this, today in 21st‑century India, we are not just changing regulations, we are changing the entire philosophy of regulation. Earlier the approach of regulations was: “Prohibited unless permitted.” That is, until the government gave permission, you could not do that work. We are changing this approach to “Permitted unless prohibited.” That is, for work that the law has not explicitly forbidden, there should be no need for permission at every step. And behind this thinking is something very simple – the basis of the relationship between government and citizen should be trust, not suspicion.

Friends,

This thinking is also visible in the Jan Vishwas Bill. I believe it is not right to consider every procedural mistake a criminal offence. That is why many offences have been decriminalized. In many cases, instead of jail, only financial penalty has been provided. In the relationship between government and enterprise, we are advancing this same reform mindset. In recent years, more than 40,000 compliances have been removed – forty thousand. More than 1,500 old and useless laws have been abolished. And when you look at all these reforms together, you realize how much burden has been reduced from the shoulders of our industries and businesses.

Friends,

We are continuously working on this process of governance reforms. In the recent monsoon session of Parliament we passed the Bankers’ Book Evidence Bill. And that too when the opposition had created continuous disruption in Parliament. We did not allow the work of serving the nation to stop. Now this law has replaced the 19th‑century English law. Now the acceptability of banks’ digital records has been given legal recognition. This will reduce legal complications, bring transparency in the system, and increase ease of doing business.

Friends,

One meaning of reform in governance is also that systems should be built with sensitivity toward every human life and its time. I will give the example of railways. In our railways too, work has been done with this approach. Today, more than 6,500 railway stations have electronic interlocking arrangements. More than 10,000 level crossing gates have also been connected with interlocking. This has greatly reduced the possibility of accidents due to human error.

Friends,

When our government came in 2014, there were about 9,000 unmanned crossings. Removing them was not rocket science. Because of unmanned crossings, thousands of people lost their lives, but earlier governments did not care much. We, in mission mode, in the past ten years, eliminated these unmanned crossings. We also increased the speed of building road overbridges and road underbridges many times. And the result of this is that compared to before 2014, the number of train accidents has reduced by up to ninety percent – 90, ninety percent. Twelve years ago, about 150 rail accidents used to happen in a year. Now their number has reduced to 15–20. And we are continuously trying to reduce it even further.

Friends,

Cleanliness in railways is also a big example of governance reform. There was a time when filth and human waste on railway tracks used to be a big problem. Today the situation has completely changed. Before 2014, about 12,000 bio‑toilets had been installed in our trains. After 2014, more than 360,000 bio‑toilets have been installed in trains. That means more than 97 percent of bio‑toilets have been installed in the last 12 years. This change is not just about cleanliness, it is a new model of governance in the direction of dignity of passengers, cleanliness, and building a modern India. It is also a campaign to give a better experience to crores of passengers.

Friends,

Another measure of the quality of governance is time. A project that starts should be completed on time. And the service that people receive should also meet the test of time. The Delhi–Meerut Namo Bharat Rapid Rail System is a very good example of this. On this corridor trains are running at a speed of 160 kilometers per hour. This could never have been imagined in our country before. So far more than 40 million passengers have traveled in it. And there is another important factor which is not discussed. The punctuality of the Delhi–Meerut Namo Bharat Rapid Rail is 99.9 percent. Otherwise we used to say for everything, if late, “this is Indian time.” Times have changed. I mention these small things so that we realize how broad and extensive the work is. Similarly, the punctuality of the Delhi Metro. The punctuality of the Delhi Metro is 99.9 percent. And this punctuality has become almost equal to metros of cities like New York, Hong Kong, and Paris. This is not just the story of a metro and rapid rail running on time. This is the identity of India changing with time. I know that still – and I am not someone who sits satisfied with just this – still in this direction we have much to do, much remains. But we are continuously doing it. A beginning has been made, and this beginning is commendable.

Friends,

Another major dimension of our reforms roadmap is reforms at the policy level! Today we are making policies that are pro‑people, pro‑growth, pro‑development! Policies should be according to the needs of the country and its people, not that policies are made and the country is forced to run according to them! I want to give you another interesting example. Until a few years ago, even making a map of the country was illegal. If you made a map, it was illegal, you could go to jail. Without permission you could not even do mapping work in the country. Think about it – foreign satellite technology could map any corner of India, but in India, Indians were prohibited from making a map of India.

Friends,

In today’s era of technology, just this one restriction could have killed so many startups! So many ideas could have been deprived of implementation! We changed this system too. We deregulated geospatial data, and today geospatial data has become the foundation of many startups.

Friends,

Today you are continuously seeing the growing utility of drones. In agriculture, in defense, in delivery, in shooting, in content creation – all this would not have been possible if the government had not carried out reforms in the rules related to it. Earlier, drone flying in the country was completely bound in rules and restrictions. We freed it from those restrictions, and today India’s drone industry is moving forward with an unprecedented flight.

Friends,

Earlier, the thinking of governments regarding border areas was that if roads and infrastructure increased at the border, then the enemy could also benefit from it. We changed this thinking. We said, border infrastructure is not a weakness, it is the strength of the nation. And that is why today the network of roads, bridges, and tunnels in border areas is rapidly increasing. In just 2024 and 2025 alone, 250 infrastructure projects of BRO have been dedicated to the nation. When the thinking changed, the picture of border infrastructure also changed.

Friends,

There is also an example of nuclear reforms. At a time when development was completely energy‑dependent, because of restrictions and prohibitions, the country was not able to use its nuclear potential. Through the Shanti Bill we carried out a major reform in this too. Today in India the path has been opened for the private sector in nuclear energy. Similarly, we carried out a major policy reform in the defense sector too. The system that had been running for 200 years, we changed it by merging more than 40 ordnance factories into 7 factories. And we are seeing its results. Today India is becoming self‑reliant even for its defense needs, and compared to 2014, our defense exports have increased 55 times. And that is why, many times reforms blend into our lives in such a way that we do not even notice them. Think about how your ordinary day passes today. You wake up in the morning, order household items on your phone, and by the time you are ready for office, all that stuff has reached your home. From the street vendor in your lane to the showroom of your car, all your payments are done just by scanning a QR code. If your daughter is studying in another city, you can send her money by phone, and that money reaches her within seconds. Many times the daughter even shares a QR saying, “Papa‑Maa, I bought this dress, please make the payment,” and you get her shopping done while sitting at home. These things are remarkable, but now they do not surprise the people of India. When outsiders come, they are astonished – “Oh, it happens like this.” For the people of India, it has become routine. It has become part of the life of the ordinary citizen of India. Think – before 2014, how many of these things were possible?

Friends,

In the past 10–12 years, the reforms India has carried out related to ease of living have changed people’s lives – especially the lives of our middle class – in a way that is still only a dream in many developed countries of the world.

Friends,

Today the cheapest data in the world is in India. We are making cheap and good smartphones. Just now Satya described it. India is among the countries carrying out the fastest 5G rollouts in the world. We linked Aadhaar with banking, mobile connectivity, and services, making services like e‑KYC and digital authentication possible. Today if you want to open a bank account, you don’t even need to go to the bank. The government has brought the bank to you. Today whether it is paying a bill, booking a ticket, there is no need to go to a government office – all this work happens online. Filing income tax has become easier. A system has been created where maximum information in the form is already filled. You verify this information, add what you need, and submit – your work is done. Earlier refunds used to take months to arrive, now they come in just a few days.

Friends,

Today with the help of e‑Sanjeevani – perhaps it is still discussed very little – with the help of e‑Sanjeevani, people in distant villages can directly consult doctors from anywhere and take the path of treatment. And those who earlier had to travel many kilometers to reach a hospital, today the doctor is available to them at home, on their screen. And this figure will surely astonish you – showing how India has adapted technology, how it has simplified the life of the ordinary person. So far, under e‑Sanjeevani, nearly 500 million tele‑consultations have taken place.

Friends,

Today in India the travel experience is changing, the journeys of India’s citizens have completely changed. It is difficult to find a person in this hall who has not used DigiYatra at the airport. Similarly, nowadays much work is happening seamlessly. FastTags are running on highways, so that you can pay tolls without stopping and move ahead. This is the true meaning of ease of living. Time is being saved, life is becoming easier, and crores of people are able to focus on their progress.

Friends,

In politics, often those decisions become headlines whose effect is visible today – that is, whose life is 24 hours. Earlier governments adopted the formula of making announcements with elections in view. But such announcements did not change the country. The decisions that change the country are those whose impact is visible on the ground, which are taken keeping both the present and the future in mind.

Friends,

The PM‑KUSUM scheme and the PM SuryaGhar Free Electricity scheme are very unique examples of this. Through the KUSUM scheme, farmers have been freed from the worry of electricity. And through the SuryaGhar scheme, the middle class has benefited greatly.

Friends,

I know that if I had announced that from today electricity is free for millions of families, then all the media, all the screens, all the newspapers would have made big headlines saying “Modi ji announced free electricity today.” But we started work with a different approach. We resolved to raise a sun on the roof of every house. And today more than 5 million families in the country are connected with the PM SuryaGhar Free Electricity scheme. The government has given more than 22,000 crore rupees to these families to install solar systems, so that solar plants can be installed on their roofs to produce solar power. Now these families are selling extra electricity to the grid and earning money. Their own bill has become zero, and they have started earning too. This scheme is also expanding people’s dreams. With electricity bills reduced, people are now buying and keeping things like refrigerators, coolers, washing machines, TVs. Now there is no fear that milk will spoil because of power cuts, no worry remains. Now school‑going children can sleep peacefully at night. I say again – whether elections happen or not, this SuryaGhar and its light will remain. The benefit of this plant will continue to reach families of the country for years.

 

Friends,

In the coming time, ease of living and ease of doing business will expand further. For the youth of the country, for women power, for farmers, for the poor and the middle class, our government will continue to work. Our reform express will move forward at even greater speed. To fulfill the goal of a developed India, we will continue to work with full commitment. And I – for me, if India’s future is secured, then from this very land a great work will be done to bring stability to the world’s future too. With this confidence, the more stable India becomes, the more secure India’s future becomes, the strength to give the world a sense of security will arise from here. With this capability, with this resolve, once again I heartily thank the entire team of Economic Times for inviting me to today’s program. Vande Mataram!

PM shares glimpses of his address at the Economic Times World Leaders Forum 2026

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has shared glimpses of his address at the Economic Times World Leaders Forum 2026.

In a series of X posts, Shri Modi said;

“India has moved from Production Linked Punishment to Production Linked Incentives.

There was a time when companies would be penalised for producing beyond prescribed limits! That mindset of the Licence Raj discouraged enterprise, production and job creation.

Today, the approach is completely different. We incentivise production, encourage ambition and trust our entrepreneurs.

India has moved from controlling enterprise to enabling it.”

“At the core of India’s reform journey is a change in the philosophy of governance.

We are moving from ‘Prohibited unless permitted’ to ‘Permitted unless prohibited.’ Through Jan Vishwas, decriminalisation, the removal of thousands of compliances and many obsolete laws, we are reducing the burden on citizens and enterprises.”

“Policies must be pro-people, pro-growth and pro-development…”

“Many of the most meaningful reforms are those that quietly become part of everyday life. This is what ‘Ease of Living’ truly is…”
