"Day by day we are getting more and are integrated with the rest of the world. We will further simplify our processes to make India the easiest place to do business.

India is now the leading recipient of foreign direct investment. But the story does not end there. India is also amongst the top countries that assure return on investment," the PM said. "The potential for India is very high. We have to ensure that our policy and processes have to be balanced between urban and rural areas.
