New Delhi | His government's decision to host G-20 events across the country is an investment in capacity-building among people, cities and institutions, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said, as he took a jibe at previous governments asserting they lacked confidence in people's abilities to hold mega events outside the capital, in smaller places.
Modi said he had always had a great belief in people as he cited his organisational background to assert that he learnt a lot from many experiences during that phase of his life.
"I had the privilege of witnessing first-hand the feats common citizens were capable of when given a platform and an opportunity," the prime minister told PTI in an interview late last week.
