‘Symbols of Gujarat’s prosperity’: Prime Minister Modi inaugurates three development projects


Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated three development projects in Gujarat on Saturday and congratulated the state for the “wonderful” work the state has done in the irrigation sector. All three of these projects are symbols of Gujarat’s prosperity, the prime minister said in his online speech.

Opening Kisan Sarvoday Yojana, whereby farmers will be able to tap into the power supply from 5 am to 9 pm for irrigation purposes, Modi said: “Farmers will get electricity during the day. Those who know about agriculture know that farmers only get electricity at night. But now this will change for Gujarat farmers. But there should be more attention to save water. One drop, more harvest should be our mantra. If we waste water, since we will get it during the day, then the purpose will be defeated. “

Dahod, Patan, Mahisagar, Panchmahal, Chhota Udepur, Kheda, Tapi, Valsad, Anand and Gir-Somnath districts have been included in the plan for 2020-21. The rest will be included in a phased manner for 2022-23.

Opening the second project, which is the Pediatric Heart Hospital attached to the UN Mehta Institute of Cardiology and Research Center in Ahmedabad, the Prime Minister said: “Today, children are also affected by heart disease. This hospital will serve not only Gujarat but also the rest of India. “

On Saturday, Mount Girnar got a cable car, which is the fourth cable car in the state. “The project was stalled for years. This will create job opportunities for young people. Once we provide ease of living and travel for tourists, we will be able to turn various circuits into the global tourist spots of Gujarat, ”said PM Modi.
