Although I've spent a lot of time there over the years—doing everything from checking out toilets to visiting a village that's home to the one poorest, most underserved castes in India—I haven't been back since before the pandemic. I can't wait to see how much progress has been made in that time."
He further stated that there is no better proof than the remarkable progress that India has accomplished and added that "India as a whole gives me hope for the future."
