Only PM Modi, Trump, Putin and China Matter on the World Forum: DLF's Chairman Emeritus KP Singh
In an exclusive interview with Moneycontrol, KP Singh, Chairman Emeritus of DLF, the country's largest real estate developer, revealed that India is rapidly progressing and poised to become the world's third-largest economy after the United States and China in the next few years. Singh attributes India's growing stature to its leadership under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has changed the country's image on a global level.
Singh praises PM Modi as one of the four top leaders that matter at the world level, along with US President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Chinese President Xi Jinping. He believes that these leaders have the ability to shape the world, and India is already on the "high table" due to its rapid progress.
The real estate sector has undergone significant transformation over the years, according to Singh, with most old builders either in jail or facing financial difficulties. However, he notes that a new breed of developers is emerging, compliant with regulations and driven by RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Authority) law.
Singh also highlights the urgent need for improvement in India's urban infrastructure, citing poor planning as the main cause of rising pollution and toxic air quality in Delhi NCR. He calls for drastic measures and long-term planning to create surplus for better sustainable urban infrastructure.
Furthermore, Singh emphasizes the importance of sustainable and green building practices, citing DLF's own efforts to adopt such principles internationally. He advises young entrepreneurs to think big, plan ahead, and prioritize ethics and moral values in their business endeavors.
Looking back on his legacy, KP Singh considers winning over the confidence of farmers to buy land a significant achievement. His vision for India's future includes rapid growth, transformation in the real estate sector, and a focus on sustainable urban infrastructure planning.
As the world continues to evolve, KP Singh's words serve as a reminder of India's rising prominence and its potential to shape global affairs under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi.
