Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated multiple development projects worth more than Rs 13,500 crores in Tarabh, Mahesana, Gujarat. The Prime Minister's Office disclosed that these projects span across various sectors including internet connectivity, rail, road, education, health, connectivity, research, and tourism.
Addressing the gathering, the Prime Minister reminisced about the event exactly one month ago, on January 22nd, when he had the opportunity to perform the Pran Pratishtha ceremony of Ram Lalla in Ayodhya.
The Prime Minister highlighted significant events, including the inauguration of the first Hindu temple in the Gulf countries in Abu Dhabi and the laying of the foundation stone for Kalki Dham in Sambhal district, Uttar Pradesh.
He also mentioned his participation in consecration and worship at the Valinath Mahadev Temple in Tarabh. Emphasizing the significance of Valinath Shiv Dham as a pilgrimage site and a revered Guru seat for the Rewari society, he noted the ongoing rapid pace of both divine and national tasks in India's development journey.
PM Modi stated, "This auspicious event has occurred, and development works worth Rs 13,000 crore were dedicated or foundation stones were laid; on the other."
He added, "These rail, road, port, transport, water, security, urban development, and tourism projects will enhance the quality of life and generate new employment opportunities for the youth of the region."
The Prime Minister remarked on the presence of divine energy in the sacred land of Mehsana, emphasizing its connection to the spiritual consciousness rooted in the worship of Bhagwan Krishna and Bhagwan Mahadev for thousands of years.
PM Modi praised the local religious groups for spreading knowledge and improving education by organizing book fairs and building schools and hostels. He said these efforts are great examples of both spiritual and national service. He also praised the Rabari community for keeping these traditions alive.
The Prime Minister highlighted the inclusive ethos of Sabka Saath Vikas within Valinath Dham, emphasizing the government's commitment to enhancing the lives of all sections of society.
He stated that the goal of Modi's guarantee is to uplift the most marginalized individuals in society. He drew parallels between the establishment of new temples and the construction of solid houses for millions of impoverished individuals.
Furthermore, he noted the bolstering of rail connectivity to Mehsana and remarked on the enhancement of connectivity between Banaskantha and Patan with Kandia, Tuna, and Mundra ports through the doubling of the rail line.
The Prime Minister reaffirmed his commitment to fulfilling promises by citing the example of laying the foundation stone for the Deesa Air Force Station runway 1.5 years ago. He emphasized that this fulfilled pledge serves as a testament to "Modi's guarantee."
PM Modi highlighted the inauguration and foundation stone laying of eight water-related projects worth over Rs 1500 crores, aiming to alleviate water issues in North Gujarat. He commended local farmers for embracing modern techniques like drip irrigation and chemical-free farming, stating that their efforts will inspire farmers nationwide.
PM Modi underscored the government's commitment to both development and heritage preservation, offering best wishes for today's projects. Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, along with various MPs, MLAs, and Gujarat government representatives, attended the event.
