Statement by Mr R Mukundan, President, CII

I extend warm congratulations to the Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on completing 12 years in office. During this period, focused reforms and strategic initiatives have strengthened India's economic foundation, enhanced its resilience and prepared it for sustained growth in a rapidly evolving global environment.

Over the past decade, India has made notable progress across infrastructure development, digital transformation, manufacturing, innovation, sustainability, and the ease of doing business. These efforts have strengthened the country’s global competitiveness and reinforced its position as a preferred destination. The growing confidence in India's capabilities is reflected in its resilience, ambition, and continued progress towards becoming a leading global economic powerhouse.

As India moves towards its vision of Viksit Bharat 2047, Industry remains committed to working closely with the Government to accelerate investment, strengthen competitiveness, create quality employment, and ensure that growth remains inclusive, sustainable, and future-ready.
