Microsoft co-founder and philanthropist Bill Gates, Mahindra Group Chairman Anand Mahindra, and Aman Gupta, co-founder and CMO of boAt, on Friday congratulated Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he began his third straight term in office.
Gates praised the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, crediting him for positioning India on the global map and making strides in the fields of health, agriculture, women's development, and digital transformation. Gates was looking forward to continuing to work together to improve people's lives in India and around the world, and maybe it will include another visit to the country where recently he met PM Modi and discussed everything from artificial intelligence to healthcare.
Anand Mahindra too tweeted his congratulations and said, "Congratulations to Narendra Modi for this new term to lead the country. The election has been fought hard but fairly. Democratic systems have demonstrated their resilience. As a result, the country's fortune is now decided. Time to advance the difference."
"It is a matter of pride that the world's largest democracy has had the largest elections in history and a new government has been formed without any obstacles. Congratulations to Indian voters for exercising their important democratic right," he wrote.
Gupta said that this election term has helped create a government that is ready to follow PM Modi's "visionary path and build for the common good of India a Viksit Bharat."
