While inaugurating a three-day training camp for new-elected counselors of Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation today at SPIPA, Chief Minister Shri Narendra Modi called upon them to develop Ahmedabad as a model city in all front.

Shri Modi appealed to make Ahmedabad a slum-free city and said that five years' tenure of counselors is the opportunity for them when they can change the face of Ahmedabad city. If all the 192 counselors can tune up there work on the same note, people of Ahmedabad would see a symphony of growth, he said.

Chief Minister urged the counselors to call for meetings with the leaders of society and to seek their ideas for the development of the city.

Shri Modi said that motive behind the steps taken by British government was to prevent any sort of discontent among people and thus to safeguard their power position, but 'people's service' should be the only motto behind any measures after independence. 'Working for the good of people and of the state should be the only aim, no matter what party you are coming from', he said.

Chief Minister asked all 192 counselors to work as 'Team Ahmedabad' and earned reorganization for Ahmedabad that is based on some theme.

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi earlier today chaired the meeting of the 45th edition of PRAGATI, the ICT-based multi-modal platform for Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation, involving Centre and State governments.

In the meeting, eight significant projects were reviewed, which included six Metro Projects of Urban Transport and one project each relating to Road connectivity and Thermal power. The combined cost of these projects, spread across different States/UTs, is more than Rs. 1 lakh crore.

Prime Minister stressed that all government officials, both at the Central and State levels, must recognize that project delays not only escalate costs but also hinder the public from receiving the intended benefits.

During the interaction, Prime Minister also reviewed Public Grievances related to the Banking & Insurance Sector. While Prime Minister noted the reduction in the time taken for disposal, he also emphasized on the quality of disposal of the grievances.

Considering more and more cities are coming up with Metro Projects as one of the preferred public transport systems, Prime Minister advised conducting workshops for experience sharing for cities where projects are under implementation or in the pipeline, to capture the best practices and learnings from experiences.

During the review, Prime Minister stressed on the importance of timely Rehabilitation and Resettlement of Project Affected Families during implementation of projects. He further asked to ensure ease of living for such families by providing quality amenities at the new place.

PM also reviewed PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana. He directed to enhance the capacity of installations of Rooftops in the States/UTs by developing a quality vendor ecosystem. He further directed to reduce the time required in the process, starting from demand generation to operationalization of rooftop solar. He further directed states to adopt a saturation approach for villages, towns and cities in a phased manner.

Up to the 45th edition of PRAGATI meetings, 363 projects having a total cost of around Rs. 19.12 lakh crore have been reviewed.
