BJP leader and former Union minister Smriti Irani stated that her four-nation tour to promote the book "MODIALOGUE - Conversations for a Viksit Bharat" has strengthened her belief in India's emergence as a global leader.

Irani described the tour, which took her to Kuwait, Dubai, Oman, and London, as an "exhilarating" experience, according to a statement.

She said, "The journey has strengthened my belief in India's rise as a global leader – a tale of progress, purpose, and partnership that continues to captivate and inspire." She also mentioned how inspiring it was to see the Indian diaspora celebrating and taking pride in how India has evolved from a land of potential to one of remarkable achievements.

"Every conversation reflected a profound sense of possibility: of global good taking shape, of Indians eager to collaborate for a Viksit Bharat, and of a world community, captivated and ready to partner with India for a brighter, shared future," she added.

The author of the book, Ashwin Fernandes, described the promotional tour as "an extraordinary journey," highlighting India's transformation under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership.

Fernandes added, "This tour is not merely about a book, but about the shared aspirations of a Viksit Bharat and the reflections of the Indian diaspora's commitment abroad." PTI KR RC
