He praised the robust framework of ‘Rule of Law’, saying that it not only protects investor interests but also contributes significantly to the nation’s economic growth and development. He added that with a well-established judiciary and transparent regulatory processes, India assures fairness and reliability to investors, fostering a business-friendly environment. He further elaborated that stability and predictability of India’s legal framework are bolstering investor confidence. “भारत पर दुनिया का निवेश और विश्वास बढ़ रहा है, क्योंकि हमारे यहां स्थिर नीतियां हैं, लॉ एंड ऑर्डर है।” -लोक सभा अध्यक्ष @ombirlakota pic.twitter.com/91wX7r65iF The Lok Sabha Speaker noted that the stature of India is growing globally and the world is keenly looking up to India. He highlighted the effective leadership and visionary approach of Prime Minister Narendra Modi which has propelled India forward in various spheres, including the economy, technology, and social development. He reiterated the importance of ancient Indian philosophy of “ Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” – the idea that “world is one family”. He emphasised its crucial role in achieving peace and stability globally, transcending cultural and national boundaries. By embracing this spirit of unity and cooperation, nations could collectively address global challenges and pave the way for lasting harmony and shared prosperity for all humanity, the Speaker said. Earlier, Shri Birla interacted with the students of Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS) in Bhubaneswar. Addressing the gathering, the Speaker emphasized that education is the foundation of nation-building. An educated society drives innovation, economic growth, and social harmony, enabling citizens to make informed decisions that benefit the nation as a whole, Shri Birla said. 2047 तक विकसित भारत के संकल्प को साकार करने का दायित्व साहस और आत्मविश्वास से भरे इन प्रतिभाशाली विद्यार्थियों के कंधों पर है। मुझे विश्वास है कि भारत की उन्नत – उज्ज्वल विकास यात्रा में महाप्रभु जगन्नाथ की पुण्य भूमि ओडिशा के ये युवा अपनी जिम्मेदारी निभाएंगे। pic.twitter.com/9bDevQupOT He noted that by educating and inculcating values in local tribal students, KISS is playing a vital role in nation building through personality development. Stressing that the responsibility of realizing the vision of a developed India by 2047 rests on the shoulders of talented students full of courage and confidence, he expressed confidence that the youth would fulfil their responsibility in India's advanced and bright development journey. *** AM Lok Sabha Speaker, Shri Om Birla today said that public policy should strive to include everyone, recognizing the diverse needs of our community.
