Once this is completed, we will be able to address a major constraint affecting our economy,

Yes, I think India's economy always has been a mixed economy, and by Western standards we are much more of a market economy than a public sector-driven economy.

Unity and secularism will be the motto of the government. We can't afford divisive polity in India.

We are a mixed economy. We will remain a mixed economy. The public and private sector will continue to play a very important role. The private sector in our country has very ample scope and I am confident that India's entrepreneurs have the capacity, and the will to rise to the occasion.

If you have a rigidly controlled economy, cut off from the rest of the world by infinite protection, nobody has any incentive to increase productivity and to bring new ideas.

Unity and secularism will be the motto of the government. We can't afford divisive polity in India.
