PM Narendra Modi’s Full Paris Speech To Indian Diaspora: 12 Years, New India & France Ties

PM Narendra Modi addresses a packed Indian community event in Paris, calling 12 consecutive years as elected PM the “great privilege” of his life and a testament to India’s democracy that took a tea seller to this role. He highlights how GDP, airports, universities, highways and metro networks have surged, 25 crore people moved out of poverty, villages got power, internet and digital services, and India leapt from Chandrayaan to Gaganyaan, green hydrogen and fast breeder nuclear tech. Modi pitches India as a “trusted partner” shaping the global future, while deepening ties with France on defence, AI, space, Trishna satellite, trade, UPI and talent mobility.
