New Delhi: President Droupadi Murmu on Tuesday asserted that the world's outlook towards India has changed under the current dispensation led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
 
Addressing the joint session of both Houses of Parliament on the first day of the Budget session, the President said, "In almost nine years of this government, people have witnessed many positive changes for the first time.The biggest change is that the confidence of every Indian is at its peak, and the world's outlook towards India has changed."
 
"India which once looked at others for solutions to most of its problems is emerging today as a provider of solutions for the issues faced by the world," Murmu said.
 
The President said the government has always kept the country's interest paramount and shown the will-power to completely transform the policies and strategies when required.
 
"From surgical strike to a firm crackdown on terrorism, from a befitting response to every misadventure from LoC to LAC, from abrogation of Article 370 to Triple Talaq, my government has been recognised as a decisive government," she said.
