Adding further, she said, "PM Modi is like the idea of leadership that has been given in our civilization in different texts. He only looks for the country going ahead. This is a very important paradigm shift in analyzing a great leader like PM Modi."
The book, "Power Within ": The Leadership Legacy of Narendra Modi captures Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership journey and interprets it through Western and Indic lenses, amalgamating them to provide a roadmap for those who aspire to a life of public service.
