Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday emphasised the mantra of reform, perform and transform while chairing the 50th meeting of the PRAGATI platform, which has accelerated projects worth over ₹85 lakh crore during the past decade.

The Prime Minister underscored the importance of leveraging technology at every stage of the project life cycle to ensure efficiency, transparency and timely delivery.

He said the Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation (PRAGATI) platform must be further strengthened in the coming years to enable faster execution, improved quality and measurable outcomes for citizens.

Highlighting its role in governance, the Prime Minister said PRAGATI is essential to sustaining the reform momentum and ensuring effective delivery of projects. He noted that several long-pending projects of national importance have been completed through the platform.

Describing PRAGATI as a strong example of cooperative federalism, Prime Minister Modi said it has helped break silo-based functioning across departments and governments.
