Democracy Is Good For World Peace.

As The Largest And Most Developed Democracies Of Asia (india And Japan), We Have A Mutual Stake In Each Other's Progress And Prosperity.

I Believe All Societies, All Thriving Societies Of The Future Are Going To Be Multicultural Societies.

India's Future Lies In Being An Open Society, An Open Polity, A Functioning Democracy Respecting All Fundamental Human Freedoms, Accepting The Rule Of Law And, At The Same Time, To Emerge As A Successful, Internationally Competitive Market Economy.

Life Is Never Free Of Contradictions

I Should Like To Express Our Profound Gratitude To The Americans Of Indian Origin. The Way They Have Conducted Themselves, The Way They Have Worked Hard To Carve Out A Niche For Themselves In The Silicon Valley, I Think This Has Also Given America A New Idea About What India Is Capable Of.
