In a turbocharged address at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2024, Prime Minister Narendra Modi revved up the audience with bold declarations and futuristic visions, heralding a new era of mobility in India. Held at the sprawling Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi, the expo, a first-of-its-kind event in India, showcased the country’s burgeoning prowess in the mobility and automotive sectors. With a turnout of over 800 exhibitors from more than 50 countries, the event was a testament to India’s accelerating drive towards becoming a global economic powerhouse.

Modi, known for his flair for dramatic announcements, did not disappoint. Amidst the gleaming displays of cutting-edge vehicles and automotive innovations, he proclaimed, “India is on the move and is moving fast,” underscoring the nation’s rapid economic growth and its imminent rise as the world’s third-largest economy. The Prime Minister’s speech was peppered with impressive stats, including a jump from 2,000 to 12 lakh electric vehicles sold annually, highlighting India’s green transition in mobility.

But it wasn’t just about the numbers. Modi touched on the human element, announcing a compassionate scheme to construct 1,000 modern rest stops for truck drivers across national highways. These facilities, equipped with food, clean drinking water, toilets, parking, and rest areas, aim to improve the lives of drivers and their families, showcasing the government’s holistic approach to mobility and social welfare.

The Prime Minister’s vision extended beyond terrestrial transport. He spoke of integrating rooftop solar systems with electric vehicles, envisioning a future where clean energy powers clean mobility. Modi’s address was a call to action for the industry, urging stakeholders to leverage India’s raw materials for battery manufacturing and explore research in green hydrogen and ethanol.

The Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2024, with its state sessions, road safety pavilions, and public-centric attractions like go-karting, was more than just an exhibition. It was a platform for collaboration, innovation, and a glimpse into India’s ambitious roadmap for the mobility sector. Modi’s rallying cry, “Yeh Hi Samay Hai, Sahi Samay Hai” (This is the time, the right time), echoed through the halls, charging the atmosphere with a sense of urgency and possibility.

As the expo concluded, the message was clear: under Modi’s leadership, India is not just participating in the global mobility race; it’s aiming to lead it. With initiatives that blend technological advancement with social welfare, India’s journey on the fast lane is just beginning.
