Prime Minister Narendra Modi said data is the real wealth. The Prime Minister was delivering a keynote address at the opening session of the WEFs annual meeting in the Swiss mountain resort of Davos.
“Today, data is a real wealth and it is being said that whoever acquires and controls the data will have hegemony in the future. The global flow of data is creating big opportunities as well as challenges,” Prime Minister Modi said.
He added that technology-driven transformation has been deeply affecting people’s way of thinking, working, international groups, politics, and economy.
He made this remark while underlining the importance of technology in today’s era. Talking about social media, Prime Minister Modi said, “The example of breaking, addition, and twisting of technology is being seen in the form of social media.”
