Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday addressed the India-Jordan Business Forum, highlighting India’s strong economic growth and inviting Jordanian and global investors to become partners in the country’s development journey. He said that with India growing at over 8 percent, the country is emerging as one of the most attractive investment destinations in the world.

PM Modi noted that while India shares borders with many nations and markets with many others, its relationship with Jordan is special because it is built on both historical trust and future economic potential. He described Jordan as an important bridge that can help Indian companies access international markets, including the United States, Canada, and other regions. Recalling discussions with Jordan’s leadership, he urged Indian businesses to fully leverage Jordan’s strategic position.

The Prime Minister said that India’s strong growth figures are the outcome of productivity-driven and innovation-focused policies. According to him, new opportunities are opening up across sectors, offering Jordanian investors a chance to participate in India’s rapid expansion and earn strong returns on their investments.

Emphasizing India’s digital transformation, PM Modi said the country has turned technology into a model of inclusion and efficiency. Platforms such as UPI, Aadhaar, and DigiLocker have become global benchmarks. He added that discussions have been held to integrate these digital frameworks with Jordan’s systems, which could further strengthen cooperation between the two nations.

PM Modi also pointed to vast opportunities in the pharmaceutical and medical devices sectors. He said healthcare today is not just an industry but a strategic priority. Indian companies setting up manufacturing units in Jordan would benefit local citizens while also positioning Jordan as a reliable healthcare hub for West Asia and Africa.

Highlighting collaboration in agriculture, the Prime Minister said India’s experience in farming under arid conditions could be highly useful for Jordan. He suggested joint work in areas such as precision farming, micro-irrigation, cold chains, food parks, and modern storage facilities.

Concluding his address, PM Modi reaffirmed that India’s fast-growing economy, strong reforms, and expanding global partnerships make it a compelling destination for investment, with India-Jordan cooperation poised to reach new heights.
