 Bill Gates is more confident than ever about India's development following his visit with PM Modi.


He discusses the accomplishments of India, including the PM Gatishakti Masterplan, the G20 Presidency, education, innovation, the fight against sickness, and the promotion of millets.

Bill Gates, the millionaire co-founder of Microsoft and philanthropist who met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi, expressed greater optimism than ever about India's advancements in the fields of health, development, and the environment.

Bill Gates tweeted his "note" on his recent trip to India, and in response, Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated he was happy to meet him and have a thorough conversation about important topics.

Gates stated in his "dispatch" that "This week, I was in India learning about the ground-breaking work being done there in the fields of health, climate change, and other crucial issues. At a time when the world is facing so many difficulties Going to a vibrant, artistic country like India is motivating."

"Prime Minister Narendra Modi and I have been in contact, notably regarding creating COVID-19 vaccines and investing in India's health systems," Gates stated, describing his discussion with the Prime Minister as the highlight of his trip.

"India has incredible potential to produce a variety of vaccinations that are safe, efficient, and reasonably priced, some of which are supported by the Gates Foundation.
According to Bill Gates, vaccines made in India helped stop other diseases from spreading around the world and saved millions of lives during the epidemic.

"Aside from creating new life-saving devices, India has also excelled at delivering them," he stated, mentioning how India handled the epidemic. "Its public health system has delivered over 2.2 billion doses of COVID vaccines." He developed an open-source platform called Co-WIN that provided digital certification for those who have received vaccinations and allowed billions of people to schedule vaccine appointments. Supporting India's national immunisation campaign now This system is being developed. I concur with Prime Minister Modi that Co-WIN should serve as a global model.

Bill Gates applauded India's advancements in digital payments and noted that during the epidemic, 300 million individuals, including 200 million women, received emergency digital payments from India. This was only made feasible because India promoted financial inclusion by funding a digital ID system (known as Aadhaar) and developing cutting-edge digital banking platforms. It serves as a reminder that investing in financial inclusion is wise.

The Gates "dispatch" also highlights India's successes, including the PM Gatishakti masterplan, the G20 presidency, education, innovation, illness prevention, and millets promotion.

"After speaking with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, I feel more enthusiastic than ever about the advancements India is making in terms of health, development, and the environment," he said in his conclusion.
