Narendra Bhai has been described in different ways. My personal favourite comes from what his name literally means in Sanskrit - a conjunction of Nara and Indra. Nara means man and Indra means King or leader. Narendra bhai is the lord of men and a king among kings

One of the important events of my tenure was my trip to Gujarat. It was a revelation to visit places like BRTS corridor, Sabarmati riverfront and the Gift city. My visit to Gujarat was an eye opener on progress the state has made. The Japanese government will be providing a strong assistance to introduce a high speed rail in India, the first line being between Ahmedabad and Mumbai.

There is something about the food in Gujarat that makes Gujaratis not just entrepreneurial but they are remarkably free of the fear of failure. And to me, this freedom from the fear of failure is at the root of entrepreneurship and innovation.

The leadership of one man, Shri Narendra Modi, has made all the difference. Over the past decade, Gujarat's GDP has grown at an average of at least 2 per cent point faster that India's. No leader of any state has had such a massive impact on modern India.
