Prime Minister Modi was virtually addressing a gathering after inaugurating Sardhardham Bhavan in Ahmedabad, a complex to train job aspirants.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said that India's economy recovered more strongly as compared to the impact it suffered due to the COVID-19 outbreak. He said that when big economies of the world were busy defending themselves during the pandemic, India was engaged in reforms. "COVID-19 affected the economies of the entire world, including that of India. But our economy has recovered more strongly than it was halted by the pandemic," Mr Modi said while virtually addressing a gathering after inaugurating Sardhardham Bhavan here, a complex for providing training to job aspirants. "When big economies of the world were busy defending themselves during the pandemic, we were carrying out reforms. When the global supply chains were disrupted, we introduced the PLI (production-linked incentive) scheme to turn new opportunities in favour of India," he said.
