The PM said that digital technology helps in pushing for openness and transparency
which are key factors in achieving this paradigm shift. He mentioned the relentless work
that has gone into boosting the Indian economy to realise its full potential in the last two
and a half years. Significant improvements are seen in macro-economic indicators like
GDP growth, inflation, fiscal deficit, current account deficit as well as foreign investments.
World Bank, IMF and other institutions have projected even better days ahead.

An apt quote goes: You can take an Indian out of India but you cannot take India out of an
Indian.
This spirit of quintessential Indianness was on full display at the Pravasi Bharatiya
Divas 2017. This day is celebrated once in two years, to commemorate the return of the
Mahatma as a Pravasi, from South Africa to India. This year, the 14th Pravasi Bhartiya
Divas was organized on the 9th of January at Bengaluru.
The Portuguese Prime Minister, Antonio Costa, was the Chief Guest at the event, as part
of his seven day visit to the Indian subcontinent. In his address, he said that he was a
proud person of Indian origin with roots in Goa and added that his father had a house
in Madgaon and it is no coincidence that he is the first person of Indian origin to lead a
European country.
The convention is also a substantial channel to enable the Central and State governments
to establish connect with the Indian diaspora. The celebrations concluded on Monday with
President Pranab Mukherjee presenting the Pravasi Bharatiya Samman awards.
On 17th January 2017, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the second phase of
the Raisina Dialogue, Indias prime geo-political conference. This annual conference is
being organized this year by the Observer Research Foundation (ORF) in alliance with the
Ministry of External Affairs.
Addressing more than 250 representatives from 69 countries, Prime Minister Narendra
Modi said that in May 2014, the people of India ushered in a New Normal. Indicating that it
was a mandate to take bold decisions, he said that his Government would forge a path
of international engagement, that thrives on restoring bridges, shaping relationships
and making India human resource to be reckoned with. He said that reforms can only
succeed when they transform the economy and the society. Driven by a focal theme
New Normal: Multi-lateralism with Multi-Polarity, the three-day conference revolves
around strategic issues comprising rising challenges and cyber security.
As part of its initiative to promote digital payment schemes, under the Lucky
Grahak Yojana, the Government introduced lucky draw prizes. So far, 45 people have
become lakhpatis. Showing that people from various backgrounds were taking to
digital transactions, among the winners, 31324 people are from the salaried class, 17491
students, 11022 business persons, 8446 from the agriculture sector and the rest from
other categories. The BHIM (Bharat Interface for Money) mobile application, launched
by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to facilitate digital payments and transactions, has
reached 10 million downloads within just 10 days of its launch, becoming the topper in
Google Play store. The Prime Minister also lauded it as an ideal exemplar of Make in
India and an innovative use of technology to eliminate corruption and black money.

On 9th January 2017, Polands Deputy Prime Minister, Piotr Gliski met Prime Minister
Narendra Modi on the first day of his visit to India. He commended the state of Gujarat as
an economic institution in itself and emerging larger than Poland, on those parameters.
The two leaders spoke about trade contracts between India and the Mazowieckie and
Podkarpackie districts of Poland, in addition to other areas of mutual interest. Glinski also
lead the group of delegates from Poland to the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit 2017,
which is one of the prominent instruments of phrasing the economic scenario of India.
Madhya Pradesh set up its first bio methanation plant, equipped to release
biogas sufficient to light streets or run other similar essentialities. It was
inaugurated in Bhopal on 9th January, by the city mayor Alok Sharma.
To be fuelled everyday by municipal solid waste, this facility will be fully
functional in another fortnight. A demonstration was carried out at the launch
to show how this waste-to-energy plant can churn out biogas to power the
streetlights of Bittan Market. The biodegradable waste used to run this plant
will be sourced mostly from the neighbouring vegetable marketplace and the
adjoining colonies. The plant is capacitated to process four to five tonnes of
segregated organic municipal solid waste in one day and generate biogas.
Established as a component of the Bhopal Smart City project, the scheme
is being hinged with the Swachh Bharat initiative. According to BMCs
evaluations, the area houses more than 50 hotels and 500 vegetable
sellers, offering a perfect
base to gather organic
waste. This translates
into a total output of 800
megatons of waste from
the city every day, out of
which 60% is organic or
disposable, thus
providing a rich source
to generate alternate
energy.
