Davos, Jan 23 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday gave a clarion call to
the international community to come out of "narrow domestic walls" and unite against
the dangers of terrorism, climate change and increasing protectionism.
"Let us create a 'heaven of freedom', where there is cooperation and not division,
and fractures," Prime Minister said in his plenary address at the World Economic Forum's
48th annual meet here.
Speaking on the theme of 'Creating a Shared Future in a Fractured World', he said,
India always stood for global peace and democracy and diversity have been India's
inherent strength.
"India has always considered the world as one family," he said adding all fissures and
disputes can be resolved through dialogue.
Quoting profusely from Upanishads and ancient texts in his hour-long
address, Prime Minister said, "Let all be happy, all be healthy and all be in peace".

"Our talent as individuals and nations should bloom together," Prime Minister said
pointing out that democracy has been the philosophy of life and part of "larger vision".
He asserted that India has never eyed "exploitation of natural resources" of others.
Countering a series of problems and hurdles due to contracting globalisation was not
in seeking "isolation" of countries but in understanding and accepting the change by
creating smart and flexible policies.
"Protectionism is raising its head against globalisation," Prime Minister said, adding due to
this trend the bilateral and multi-national trade negotiations have almost come to a standstill.
"There is a virtual halt to the global supply chains and trade between two countries and
neighbours are also facing similar situation," he said.

Quoting Lord Buddha, Mahatma Gandhi and Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore, the
Prime Minister told global corporate honchos that India is a predictable, stable and
progressive nation.
"If you want wealth with wellness, health with wholeness and prosperity with peace, come to
India," Prime Minister told the distinguished gathering.
Without naming any country, Mr Modi made a veiled attack on Pakistan and said more
than the terror itself, the threat posed by those who try to create 'artificial' differences
between good terrorists and bad terrorists is emerging as much bigger threat.
"Terrorism is a challenge to the entire humanity....another area of major concern
is radicalisation of well educated youth towards terrorism," he said.
