Today the people of Gujarat can proudly say that we are showing the path to the nation for ‘Surajya’ as we did for ‘Swarajya’. Having achieved this feat, it is our duty now to take Gujarat to further heights for the betterment of our fellow countrymen. This is a true service to mother India.

And with the blessings of Bapu, these talks would not fail here, they would be fruitful.

“Suraj Sankalp” National Convention - Keynote address by Hon’ble CM
Mere good governance is not enough; it has to be pro-people and pro-active. Good governance is putting people at the centre of development process.
For achieving good governance political will is necessary. Good governance is a political process. Though role of civil society is critical, without political will and political process sustainable good governance cannot be achieved.
People's participation is the essence of good governance.
Good Governance cannot remain merely a philosophy. Concrete steps have to be taken for realizing its goals.
Good governance is not fire-fighting or crisis-management. Instead of opting for ad hoc solutions the need of the hour is to tackle the root cause of the problems.
Team Work is the essence of good governance. It is necessary to form a team within the party and also within the administrative system.
Good governance needs self-discipline. Only discipline within can ensure discipline without.
Suggestions made at the first meeting of National Committee for celebrating 150th birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda
Yoga should be taught compulsorily in all schools of India from the year 2013, which marks Swami Vivekananda's 150th birth anniversary. The creation of four Yoga Universities in the name of Swami Vivekananda for research and practice would be a fitting tribute to this great man's vision, and it is up to us to realize and maintain this vision.
We should set up a centre of excellence in one of our universities to deal exclusively with the study of Swami Vivekananda's teachings and their relevance to our everyday lives.
We can broadcast the teachings of Swamiji in television and radio, or depict an episode pertaining to teachings.
India can institute awards for “Ideal Youth Personality of the Year” in the name of Swami Vivekananda.
The complete works of Swami Vivekananda should be made available in other Indian as well as foreign languages,
“The thoughts portrayed in this book are a humble endeavor to bring the plight and sufferings of Dalits forward. It is also an effort to awaken the spirit of social harmony. Our society needs to heed my call as personal one.”
“The issue of social harmony is not at all limited to untouchability. But, Dr. Baba Saheb Aambedkar showed us the path and inspired us to have love and respect for the down -trodden and under-privileged classes. Untouchability is a stigma for any society.”
“Ambedkar and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel were two leaders who did not receive their due in post-independent India.”
Dr. B R Ambedkar always worked for the unity of society and even when he converted, he converted to Buddhism, and not to Christianity or Islam.
