Modi, who received applause from the gathering several times during his speech, said the word "infra" represents alliance between India and France.
He said there is a reference to `21st century infra' during discussions. "Here infra has some other meaning. It stands for India and France. It is a partnership, an alliance between India and France. From solar infra to social infra, technology infra to space infra, from digital infra to defence infra, the alliance between India and France is moving forward strongly," the Prime Minister said.
Modi said the second BJP-led government has assumed office about 75 days back and it has not spent its time in felicitation functions.
"It has completed 75 days in office. Inspired by 'spasht niti, sahi disha', we are taking one decision after another," he said. Modi said that his government has set up Jal Shakti Ministry to holistically tackle issues relating to water and had taken several "revolutionary steps" in the field of health and for protection of children.He said Triple Talaq was an inhuman act and linked to the issue of women's dignity.
"That the sword of Triple Talaq should keep hanging...we have ended it. Whether someone says it or not, the blessings of crores of daughters will be beneficial for the country in the centuries to come. How can new India accept injustice with Muslim sisters and daughters," he said. Modi also referred to the soft landing of Chandrayaan 2 on the moon on September 7.
"Chandrayaan 2 will make a landing on the moon on September 7. India will become the fourth country in the world to achieve the feat," he said. (ANI)
