Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Singapore-India Hackathon 2019 at IIT-Madras:
Friends you have been working for the last 36 hours to solve challenging problems. Hats off to you & your energy & I don't see fatigue. I see satisfaction of a task well accomplished.
Hackathons are great for youngsters, participants get access to state of the art technology for solution of global problems. I firmly believe that the solutions found in today's hackathon are the start-up ideas for tomorrow.
I congratulate the winners of the Hackathon & each and every young friend assembled here. Your willingness to confront challenges & find workable solutions is of much great value than just winning a challenge.
My young friends here solved many problems today. I specially like the solution about camera to detect who is paying attention. I will talk to my Speaker in the Parliament. I am sure it will be very useful to Parliament.
