Mumbai: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday praised the announcements made by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in the fourth instalment of the Rs 20 lakh crore stimulus package and said that “a strong, secure and empowered India” is Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s top priority.
In a series of tweets, Amit Shah said that the historic decisions will boost the economy and strengthen efforts towards a self-reliant India.
He said that ‘improvement, performance and change’ is the key to India’s unprecedented growth in the last six years.
He said, “I thank PM Narendra Modi and FM Nirmala Sitharaman for today’s historic decisions, which will definitely boost our economy and our efforts towards Atmanbir India.”
“A strong, secure and empowered India is PM Narendra Modi’s topmost priority. Raising the FDI limit in defence manufacturing to 74 per cent and banning the import of selected weapons/platforms with year-wise timelines will surely boost ‘Make in India’ and reduce our import burden,” he added.
