Leadership qualities are needed in every field and not just in politics, Birla said, adding that continuous effort is required to develop these qualities.
"Good leadership leads to good governance. The country has got a capable leadership in the form of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Under his leadership, India will become a developed nation," he added.
Birla also said that India had democracy even before it became independent. "Decisions were taken collectively in our villages even in the past. Our country is the mother of democracy," he stated.
