India is now the bright hope for sustaining Asia's growth, Prime Minister Narendra Modi declared here on Monday.

Speaking at the 37th Singapore Lecture, Modi said Asia's growth was earlier led by Japan, China and South Korea. Now "India is the brightest hope", he said.

Talking about India's relationship with Singapore, Modi said, "Singapore teaches us many things. The size of a nation is no barrier to the scale of its achievements. And the lack of resources is no constraint for inspiration, imagination and innovation."
