PM Modi Highlights Why Indian Talent Leads Top Tech Firms Globally

Indian professionals' global success, especially in the tech sector, has been credited by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to India's cultural values, problem-solving skills, and teamwork. Speaking with American podcaster Lex Fridman, PM Modi explained why Indian talent sits at the helm of top tech giants like Google's Sundar Pichai and Microsoft's Satya Nadella.

Indian professionals, says the Prime Minister, are superior in terms of performing complicated tasks and managing huge teams successfully, primarily due to their experience of growing up in joint families and open societies. "The problem-solving skills, coupled with analytical minds of Indian professionals, are simply outstanding. This ability renders them globally competitive and assets to the world", Modi told TOI.

He also added that Indian culture creates a strong sense of respect for one's native land as well as work environment. "Just as much commitment is given to the land of birth, so should the same commitment be given to the land of work. Due to these rich cultural values, each Indian works with utmost effort, irrespective of position or designation", he said.
PM Modi also mentioned the excellent moral basis of Indian professionals that helps make them successful across the world. "They stick to what's ethical and right. Their approach is collaborative, and they coordinate extremely well with others. Simply knowing things isn't important; knowing how to get along in a team setting means a great deal more", he observed.
Talking about India's increasing strength in the space field, PM Modi highlighted that India's space sector, which was completely government-driven, has been made open to private entities. "Now, we already have 200 startups engaged in space technology", he said. He also highlighted India's frugal strategy towards space missions, referring to the Chandrayaan mission. "India's Chandrayaan mission is cheaper than what Hollywood spends on a single blockbuster movie". When the world observes how affordable our work is, they automatically wonder why not collaborate with India?" he declared.
PM Modi ended by saying that India's indigenous civilizational tradition and focus on innovation and collaboration continue to make Indian professionals a desired force in global leadership, especially in the technological sector.
