The global leadership is convinced that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will return to office after this year's elections and is looking for the continuity of policy and social sector reforms put in place by him, Union Minister Smriti Irani said on Wednesday. In an interview to PTI at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2024 here, the minister said that the fact that the global leadership, especially the global financial leadership is eagerly looking to welcome Prime Minister Modi back in Davos speaks volumes. She said even the World Economic Forum President (Borge Brende) said publicly in an interview that he hopes to invite Prime Minister Modi back to Davos in 2025. "That means the global community is rest assured that Prime Minister Modi will come back to office," she said. "Prime Minister Modi has stood steadfast not only on policy reforms but also in ensuring that social sector is not ignored in our growth story," Irani said.
