He said that it feels good to encourage and guide the youth. India is a young country; the number of youth in the country is equal to the population of the fifth largest country in the world. Today, India is the 5th largest economy in the world. Before the advent of Startup India, there were only 400–500 startups in India. But today there are 90,000 startups across the country. Earlier, every 29th day, $1 million worth of unicorn companies were established, but today, a unicorn is created every 9th day.
