Each member of the diaspora is an ambassador of India: Piyush Goyal to Indians in France
Paris/IBNS: Union Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal Tuesday said India deeply values its 25 years of strategic partnership with France and 75 years of friendship and desires to strengthen this partnership with the European nation.
Addressing the Indian Community in France's capital Paris, Goyal said France is the preferred partner in defence, economy, investments, etc. and this journey truly is reflective of India's journey of progress.
India offers huge opportunities to the rest of the world, while its overall exports grew to US $ 765 Billion in 2022-23, Goyal said

It was a pleasure to interact with the Indian diaspora in Paris & describe how India is emerging as a bright spot on the global stage under the decisive leadership of PM @NarendraModi ji.

The growth in exports is an example of a new India with capability, capacity and confidence.
The minister said that each member of the diaspora is an ambassador of India.
“Each member of the Indian diaspora living in France is a true living bridge between the two countries will relentlessly pursue a path that will further strengthen India’s ties with France in technology, investments, tourism, etc,” Goyal said.
He said that the Indian Community in France can contribute to this journey of Amrit Kaal (the period of 25 years when India completes 100 years of Independence) envisioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to see India as a developed Nation by 2047.
India must find its rightful place in the Comity of Nations now as ‘this is the time, this is the right time’ as said by the Prime Minister, Goyal stressed.
