India will become the world's third-largest economy in the next 10 years of Narendra Modi government, Union Home Minister Amit Shah has told NDTV while outlining the focus areas for the BJP-led dispensation.
Speaking to NDTV's editor-in-chief Sanjay Pugalia on what would be the BJP government's economic priorities if it returns to power, Mr Shah said, "I think that between 2014 and 2024, Narendra Modi ji has laid a clear path for the government's economic policy. Whether it is inflation or budgetary loss or infrastructure costs, we have put all these things on the right path. PSU balance sheets, share market's situation and acceptability... earlier, there were 2.20 crore demat accounts, now there are 15 crores. Our base has widened."
