CM's quotes at Dabhoi
“Dabhoi's Taluka Seva Sadan is even more attractive than Chief Minister's Office. How good, if I be a TDO here instead of a Chief Minister! It is the most beautiful offices among around 6000 taluka blocks in entire country.”
“If states are growing only with the Centre's help, they all will grow the way Gujarat grows. It is because of the blessings of six crore Gujaratis, novel initiatives, powerful team and skillful leadership that Gujarat tops the country.”
“Government officials have worked much more in last decade than they worked in past 30 years. State government has rebuilt Kutch after earthquake and showed its strength to those who were skeptical about its rebuilding.”
“ Gujarat pre-plans for growth. It's not our policy to dig well after fire occurs.”
“It is not Narendra Modi who settles for anything less than the best. When I get better, I wish for getting the best.”
