Following are the highlights of his speech:
- These incredible scenes and this massive reception in Sydney will galvanise India
- I dedicate this honour, this welcome to 125 crore Indians
- I am fortunate that I am the first Indian PM who was born in independent India...so I feel greater responsibility
- Not every one has the god fortune of dying for the country, but we can all live for Mother India
- You can take off from India at night and reach Australia the next morning. But it took the Indian PM 28 years to reach Australia. I promise you will never need to wait that long again
- Sydney is a beautiful city, Australia is a beautiful country. Both India and Australia can't live without cricket
- Mother India has 250 crore arms, 200 crore of those arms are younger than 35. It's the youth of India who can help us fulfil our potential
- They have dreams, they are full of energy, they have the capacity to etch things in stone
- Do you believe that India will be strong once again? I see no reason for our country to remain backward
- Elections were held in India but I know that you were connected to it minute-by-minute
- I want the poorest of the poor to be part of India's growth. I started the PM's Jan Dhan Yojana
- On an average 10 million bank accounts opened each year. In the last 10 weeks, 71 million bank accounts have been opened
- If we decide to do it, we can improve the image of our country
- (PM Modi speaks on skill development) 'If we export best-quality teachers, we can make an impact on the world'
- The world is increasingly being run by brains and not brawn (Duniya bahubal se nahi buddhibal se chalne wali hain)
