"सोमनाथ में सरदार वल्लभभाई पटेल को भावभीनी श्रद्धांजलि अर्पित की। उनकी दूरदृष्टि और दृढ़ संकल्प ने मंदिर के पुनर्निर्माण में निर्णायक भूमिका निभाई थी। सरदार पटेल का सपना था कि भारत की सांस्कृतिक गौरवगाथा और आध्यात्मिक निरंतरता का प्रतीक सोमनाथ अपनी पूरी दिव्यता और भव्यता के साथ फिर से स्थापित हो।

हम राष्ट्र के लिए उनके विजन को साकार करने के प्रति सदैव प्रतिबद्ध रहेंगे।"
