Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke at the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit 2025 and set a 10-year target to remove India’s “colonial mindset”. He said India must overcome the “mentality of slavery” before 2035, marking 200 years of Macaulay’s education policy. Modi said India is growing with “high growth and low inflation” and has become a “pillar of trust” for the world. He praised reforms like zero tax on incomes up to ₹12 lakh and said earlier systems did not trust citizens. Modi also highlighted women’s progress, rising technology in small towns, and India’s new confidence and aspirations. (PC: HT)
