QuoteGST shows the good that can be achieved when all parties come together and work for the nation: PM

Monsoon Session of the Parliament gets underway today. After summer, the advent of first rain brings in a fresh new smell into the soil. Similarly, this Monsoon Session will bring in a new spirit after the successful implementation of GST.

Whenever the Political Parties and the Government take decisions keeping in mind the national interest, it shows their commitment towards the larger public good. It has been proved successfully with the implementation of GST. The GST spirit is about growing stronger together. I hope the same GST spirit prevails in this Session.

The Monsoon Session is significant on several accounts. Nation completes seven decades of Independence on 15th August, 2017. Quit India Movement turns 75 years on 9th August, 2017. During this Session, the nation gets an opportunity to elect the new President and the Vice President. In a way, this period is full of many significant events for the nation. Therefore, it is natural that the public attention will be focussed more on the Monsoon Session this year.

As the Monsoon Session of Parliament gets underway, we salute our farmers who have been ensuring food security for the country with their hard work. It is my firm belief that the Monsoon Session will provide an opportunity to all the Political Parties and the MPs to enter into a dialogue of the highest quality with value addition for taking major decisions in the larger national interest together.

Many many thanks to you.

Prime Minister condoles the passing of former Gujarat Chief Minister Shri Vijay Rupani
June 13, 2025

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today condoled the passing of former Gujarat Chief Minister Shri Vijay Rupani, who tragically lost his life in the recent Ahmedabad air disaster. Shri Modi highlighted Shri Rupani’s distinguished career, recalling his contributions across various roles, including his tenure in the Rajkot Municipal Corporation, as Rajya Sabha MP, Gujarat BJP President, and as a Cabinet Minister in the state government.

In a thread post on X, Shri Modi wrote:

“Met the family of Shri Vijaybhai Rupani Ji.

It is unimaginable that Vijaybhai is not in our midst. I’ve known him for decades. We worked together, shoulder to shoulder, including during some of the most challenging times. Vijaybhai was humble and hardworking, firmly committed to the Party's ideology. Rising up the ranks, he held various responsibilities in the Organisation and went on to serve diligently as Gujarat’s Chief Minister.”

“In every role assigned, he distinguished himself, be it in the Rajkot Municipal Corporation, as Rajya Sabha MP, as Gujarat BJP President and as Cabinet Minister in the state government.”

“Vijaybhai and I also worked extensively when he was Gujarat CM. He ushered in many measures that enhanced Gujarat’s growth trajectory, particularly in boosting ‘Ease of Living.’ Will always cherish the interactions we had. My thoughts are with his family and friends in this hour of grief. Om Shanti.”

“વિજયભાઈ રૂપાણીના પરિવારજનોને મળી સાંત્વના પાઠવી. વિજયભાઈ આપણી વચ્ચે નથી એ વાત મન માનવા તૈયાર નથી. વર્ષોથી મારે તેમની સાથે નાતો રહ્યો છે. કંઈ કેટલાય પડકારજનક સમયમાં અમે ખભે ખભા મિલાવીને કામ કર્યું છે. સરળ અને સાલસ સ્વભાવના વિજયભાઈ ખૂબ મહેનતુ હતા તથા પક્ષની વિચારધારા પ્રત્યે પ્રતિબદ્ધ હતા. એક પાયાના કાર્યકર તરીકે જાહેર જીવનમાં કારકિર્દીની શરૂઆત કરી તેઓ સંગઠનમાં વિવિધ જવાબદારીઓ નિભાવતા નિભાવતા ગુજરાતના મુખ્યમંત્રી બન્યા હતા.”

“તેઓને સોંપાયેલ દરેક ભૂમિકામાં, તે પછી રાજકોટ મ્યુનિસિપલ કોર્પોરેશનમાં હોય કે રાજ્યસભાના સાંસદ તરીકેની હોય, પ્રદેશ ભાજપના પ્રમુખની હોય કે પછી રાજ્ય સરકારમાં કેબિનેટ મંત્રી અને મુખ્યમંત્રી તરીકેની હોય, તેઓએ દરેક વખતે એક અનોખો ચીલો ચાતર્યો હતો.”

“વિજયભાઈ ગુજરાતના મુખ્યમંત્રી હતા ત્યારે મારે તેમની સાથે ઘનિષ્ઠતાથી કામ કરવાનું થયું હતું. તેઓએ ગુજરાતની વિકાસયાત્રાને આગળ ધપાવવા ઘણા પગલાં હાથ ધર્યાં હતા જેમાં 'ઈઝ ઑફ લિવિંગ' એ નોંધપાત્ર છે. તેઓની સાથે થયેલ મુલાકાતો અને ચર્ચા હંમેશાં યાદ રહેશે.

સદ્ગતના આત્માની શાંતિ માટે પ્રાર્થના…

ૐ શાંતિ...!!”
