Union Minister of State for External Affairs Meenakashi Lekhi on September 03 hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi after India overtook United Kingdom to become the fifth-largest economy in the world. She expressed optimism towards India’s future. Meenakashi Lekhi said, “To attract the attention of the Opposition, I would like to say ‘Modi Hai To Mumkin Hai’. Before 2014, we were in ‘fragile five economies’. It's a huge feat to become the 5th largest economy and surpass an economy like Britain from that position. We are also surpassing China in emerging markets.”
