We must 'reform to transform': PM Modi

Kuala Lumpur, Nov 21 (ANI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday pitched for economic reforms saying they must be brought not only to bring changes on measured GDP but to transform India. He stressed that reform for him was just a way station on the long journey to the destination and the destination is the transformation of India. The Prime Minister insisted that this was made possible in two ways. Firstly, by increasing carbon taxes on fossil fuels, by taking bold steps of de-controlling diesel prices and thereby eliminated energy subsidies, and imposing taxes on fossil fuels. Prime Minister Modi arrived here early morning to attend the 10th ASEAN-India Summit and 13th East Asia Summit, besides holding bilateral meetings with his Malaysian counterpart Najib Razak.
