Modi made welfare state a reality, 25 cr lifted out of poverty, says Shah

Highlighting Modi's approach, Shah noted that the Prime Minister recognized that India's progress hinges on addressing poverty among its 60-crore marginalized population. Over the past decade, Shah said, Modi's efforts have lifted 25 crore people out of poverty. "Prime Minister Modi grasped the mantra that India's development is impossible if 60 crore citizens remain in poverty, lifting 25 crore people out of poverty over the past decade," he said, addressing a gathering at the Gujarat Lok Seva Trust's annual event in Ahmedabad.
