The theme of this year's HT summit is "Beyond Barriers," which PM Modi found particularly fitting. He emphasised that India is surmounting various challenges to attain new milestones, exemplified by achievements in areas such as startups, mobile manufacturing, and digital transactions.

PM Modi drew parallels of his political journey with the evolving themes of the HT Leadership Summit, transitioning from "Reshaping India" in 2014, to "Conversation for a Better Tomorrow" in 2019, and culminating with "Beyond Barriers" in 2023.

“The summit's theme in 2014 was 'Reshaping India,' signifying that the HT Group foresaw the transformation of India.” Modi said. In 2019, the HT Summit's theme revolved around 'Conversation for a Better Tomorrow,' he added.

"Now, as we approach discussions about the next year's Lok Sabha elections in 2023, your theme is 'Beyond Barriers.' As a political representative, I discern a message within it. You've made it clear that the public will support us after surmounting all obstacles," the PM said.

He said that people's determination will propel Bharat to become one of the top three economies during the upcoming "third term", Modi affirmed. "India has transcended all barriers, and we will persist in this trajectory."

PM Modi said that there have been monumental changes in headlines in the past decade. He said rating agencies are now revising India's growth forecast upward, in stark contrast to previous downward revisions.

He said, “There is a transformation of India's narrative. In 2013, the focus was on the Agusta Westland scam. In contrast, the conversation now centres on record-breaking defence exports”.
