CM announces Rs.3500 crore development package for Jamnagar

11,111 people voluntarily fast with CM

Concluding his one-day fast at Jamnagar under Sadbhavna Mission district abhiyan Chief Minister Narendra Modi said that people are supporting the Mission in a huge way and their support is a reflection of their worship towards their state.

It is noteworthy that as many as 11,111 people from the Jamnagar city and Dhrol-Jodiya and Kalawad taluka voluntarily set on the fast with the Chief Minister today to convey their support.

Chief Minister also announced a development package of Rs.3,500 crore for Jamnagar city and the district. He said the present government has used every paisa for the welfare of people without increasing the tax, putting a break on the corrupt practices of the past Congress governments where mediators were siphoning the money that were meant for the good of the people. Mr.Modi said the package announced for Jamnagar is even more than the state budget during the Congress regime.

Thanking the people for their support Chief Minister said that a power-hungry and anti-Gujarat troop has spared no opportunity to defame Gujarat during last ten years. Sadbhavna Mission is a satvic way of answering these people. The element of serenity in the Sadbhanva Mission is the reason behind the huge support of the people.

It is out of the capacity of any political pandit to analyze the unprecedented support that is being received by Sadbhavna Mission. Those who try to weigh this support with political point of view are making a mistake, he said..

Gujarat and development has become synonymous to each other. This is because of the atmosphere of peace, unity and harmony that is prevailing in the state. Riots and curfews have become the days of past and the Modi-model has become the yardstick of development, he said.

Chief Minister exuded faith that the power of Sadbhana would contribute greatly in the growth of the nation.

English translation of India's National Statement at the 21st ASEAN-India Summit delivered by Prime Minister Narendra Modi
October 10, 2024

Your Majesty,

Excellencies,

Thank you all for your valuable insights and suggestions. We are committed to strengthening the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between India and ASEAN. I am confident that together we will continue to strive for human welfare, regional peace, stability, and prosperity.

We will continue to take steps to enhance not only physical connectivity but also economic, digital, cultural, and spiritual ties.

Friends,

In the context of this year's ASEAN Summit theme, "Enhancing Connectivity and Resilience,” I would like to share a few thoughts.

Today is the tenth day of the tenth month, so I would like to share ten suggestions.

First, to promote tourism between us, we could declare 2025 as the "ASEAN-India Year of Tourism.” For this initiative, India will commit USD 5 million.

Second, to commemorate a decade of India’s Act East Policy, we could organise a variety of events between India and ASEAN countries. By connecting our artists, youth, entrepreneurs, and think tanks etc., we can include initiatives such as a Music Festival, Youth Summit, Hackathon, and Start-up Festival as part of this celebration.

Third, under the "India-ASEAN Science and Technology Fund," we could hold an annual Women Scientists’ Conclave.

Fourth, the number of Masters scholarships for students from ASEAN countries at the newly established Nalanda University will be increased twofold. Additionally, a new scholarship scheme for ASEAN students at India’s agricultural universities will also be launched starting this year.

Fifth, the review of the "ASEAN-India Trade in Goods Agreement” should be completed by 2025. This will strengthen our economic relations and will help in creating a secure, resilient and reliable supply chain.

Sixth, for disaster resilience, USD 5 million will be allocated from the "ASEAN-India Fund." India’s National Disaster Management Authority and the ASEAN Humanitarian Assistance Centre can work together in this area.

Seventh, to ensure Health Resilience, the ASEAN-India Health Ministers Meeting can be institutionalised. Furthermore, we invite two experts from each ASEAN country to attend India’s Annual National Cancer Grid ‘Vishwam Conference.’

Eighth, for digital and cyber resilience, a cyber policy dialogue between India and ASEAN can be institutionalised.

Ninth, to promote a Green Future, I propose organising workshops on green hydrogen involving experts from India and ASEAN countries.

And tenth, for climate resilience, I urge all of you to join our campaign, " Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam” (Plant for Mother).

I am confident that my ten ideas will gain your support. And our teams will collaborate to implement them.

Thank you very much.
