'People who Lecture us on Protecting Environment Deny us Nuclear Fuel': PM Modi

PM Modi speaks while launching air quality index monitoring for cities

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said India should take the lead in guiding the world on fighting climate change. He was speaking in Delhi after launching an air quality index to monitor pollution in 10 cities.

Here are 5 quotes from PM Modi's speech

  1. India has to take the lead in guiding the world on ways to combat climate change.

  2. People who lecture us on environment and use of cleaner fuel don't give us nuclear fuel. These are double standards.

  3. English-speaking people will laugh at my examples...It will be a headline for the next 48 hours on TV....but there can be green solutions in our age-old traditions. India has a long tradition of recycling, reuse.

  4. Some people feel environment and development are on opposite sides, that is wrong. Both can co-exist. There should be some do's and don'ts.

  5. In Land Acquisition Bill, there is no mention of forest land or the land of people who live in the forests, but there is an attempt to mislead people. It may be a political ploy but it is costing the government.
