PM Narendra Modi addressed nation at Dabhoi. PM said let us leave no stone unturned in creating a ‘New India’ by 2022, when we mark 75 years of India’s freedom.
Sardar Patel would be happy today imagine his vision that he envisioned this Dam to help farmers and citizens.
We specially remember two people today, Sardar Patel and Dr. Ambedkar, who as Minister gave great emphasis to irrigation & waterways.
Sardar Sarovar Dam faced so many obstacles. But, we were determined that the project will go on.
Lack of water resources has been a major factor in slowing the pace of development.
I still remember, as CM when I went to border areas I saw BSF Jawans do not have water. We brought Narmada waters to borders for Jawans.
The saints and seers of Gujarat have played a very big role in the making of the Sardar Sarovar Dam as well
The waters of Maa Narmada will help several citizens and transform several lives
The western part of India lacks adequate water supply, in the eastern part there is shortage of electricity & gas supply
We are working to overcome these shortages so that both parts of India development and India scales new heights of development
The ‘Statue of Unity‘ will be a fitting tribute to Sardar Patel and will draw tourists from all over
We remember our freedom fighters from the tribal communities who gave a strong fight to colonialism
