Growth is strong and we are taking steps to keep the momentum going. I am happy to note that the BRICS Business Council also has matching priorities of ease of doing business, dismantling trade barriers, promoting skills development, establishing manufacturing supply chains and infrastructure development. The Council’s work holds much promise for expansion of trade and business among BRICS countries. Excellencies, The New Development Bank is fully operational now. Its success is a concrete result of our common efforts. We congratulate the NDB and its management for commencing the first batch of projects. NDB has kept clean energy and green and sustainable infrastructure as its priority. We welcome it. We would encourage the BRICS Business Council to work closely with the NDB on identifying and implementing prospective economic projects. India hosted the First BRICS Trade Fair in New Delhi two days ago with active participation from all your countries. Such activities must be promoted to generate greater business awareness and commercial exchanges.
