Noting that Modi has built a prosperous and strong nation through his "honest, far-sighted, courageous and revolutionary decisions", Chouhan said the evolution of India as a brand has witnessed a huge jump overall in the last three years.
"For the first time, the country has got such a Prime Minister who is turning our diversities, once considered as our weakness, into our strength," he said in a blog on the occasion.
Today, the government is moving ahead to make those dreams come true. Modiji has displayed much more by fulfilling the faith people had shown in him," Chouhan said.
With his effort, a reliable 'Brand India' has been established in the world, he said.
In a short span of three years, the PM has successfully acquired a status for India as the world's fastest growing and third largest economy. All economic agencies of the world are surprised at India's development.
"IMF has estimated India's economic development rate for this financial year as 7.2 per cent and 7.7 per cent or more in the coming years. World Bank has also said that India's development rate can be between 7.6 and 7.8 per cent.
"According to Brand Finance (valuation consultancy), India is the world's seventh most valued nation. India has achieved a significant rise of 32 per cent in Nation Brand Value.
"While the brand value of China, Germany and Canada has been negative, India is far ahead in growth. There is a decline in inflation rate based on Wholesale Price Index," he said.
"In the Global FDI Confidence Index, India has reached such a good situation that investors have said that India's image is progressive and worth showing faith," it said.
"This month i.E in May 2017, India has gifted its neighbouring countries by launching the South Asia Satellite 'GSAT-9' for SAARC countries. Through this gift, Modiji has expressed his feeling of 'Sabka Saath - Sabka Vikas' at the international level," he said.
"This will facilitate participant countries with a safe hotline which will be helpful in managing calamities like earthquake, floods, cyclone and Tsunami. Indians residing in foreign countries today can take pride in being an Indian," Chouhan said.
