In railways, 40,000 kms have been electrified in 10 years compare with 20,000 kms done in 60 years. A total of 31, 000 kms of railway tracks in 10 years 15 km per day is based at which we are constructing vs 4 kms per day. Dedicated freight corridors- in 2014 number of kms commissioned and operational was zero. Today it is more than 2700 kms and 4000 trains running on this system daily.

On electronics manufacturing, he said,” If we look back, 10 years back it was negligible and today 110 billion dollar worth of electronics manufacturing. More than 1 lakh manufacturers Apple has hired in factories of iPhone manufacturing.”

This means India is unstoppable because we have a great captain, who thinks of 25 years ahead and has legacy of 10 years in central government, that is Prime Minister Narendra Modi and that is why India is unstoppable,” he added.
