New Delhi: Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu pitched for strong economic relations between India and the US, saying it will be beneficial for both the countries and also help in promoting regional and global peace.
Addressing a seminar ‘India-US 2015: Partnership for Peace and Prosperity’ here, Prabhu said, “If India and US have strong strategic economic partnership, it will immensely benefit both the countries…” Highlighting the need for peace, he said, prosperity was not possible without peace.
Prabhu added, “Prosperity is all that we aspire. I don’t think it is possible without peace. It is a paradox but it is a reality. You cannot get big investment in any part of the world if there is no peace. You can make investment only when you have prosperity. You actually have a situation while we need to work on both at the same time,” He said the growth potential of the economy gets affected without peace in the world.
