Bharatiya Janata Party's(BJP) IT division head, Arvind Gupta , today praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying that the world has seen a more progressive nation under his dynamic leadership.

"The world has seen a progressive nation under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Modi. I just loved his statement: "The sun sets almost the last in Silicon Valley but the brightest ideas are set upon the world from here, the first," Gupta told ANI here.

"This Silicon Valley has created the most innovative companies of the world. All top CEOs are committing to projects and jobs in India. Google has announced 500 stations to be on a wifi network, Cisco is leading the India-US Business Council. PM Modi, being a good listener, will take important lessons from business leaders, which will help him in his 'Digital India' project," he added.

Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised the technological giants for reducing social barriers, saying that the internet connects people on the strength of human values, not just identities.

"Social media is reducing social barriers. It connects people on the strength of human values and not just identities. Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are our new neighbourhoods," said Prime Minister Modi while speaking at the Digital India and Digital Technology Dinner held in the Silicon Valley here.
