Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan today expressed hope that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will extend similar facilities to "swadeshi industrialists" of the country in the same way he is trying to attract foreign investors to India.
"Hope proper respect and similar facilities will be provided by him (the PM) to the swadeshi industrialists," he said in a statement while commenting on Modi's bid to woo industry leaders during his on-going US visit.
"Hope that the PM will realise the dream of swadeshi by helping swadeshi industrialists bring foreign techniques, and include the country and its people into it," he said, adding he hopes "no other East India Company is allowed to come and take its wealth away."
Khan said instead of pleasing the American public, the Prime Minister should take a resolve to address problems of women, youth and farmers who are committing suicide.
