On the morning of Thursday 18th October 2012 Shri Narendra Modi was felicitated for the creation of a separate Dholera Taluka. Shri Modi spoke about the pheneomenal development in Dholera and took on the UPA Government for cheating the people.

Shri Modi said that Dholera is now on the map of the world and spoke about the prosperity that has come into the lives of the people of Dholera.   He affirmed that no one would have imagined that there would be so much money in Dholera. The Chief Minister asked the people to use the money to educate their children and asked the people to continue to work hard in the future.

On the development of Dholera Shri Modi recalled that when he had gone to Japan, the people saw a film on Dholera that left them impressed. He declared that Dholera will be the world’s biggest SIR and added that the airport in Dholera will be larger than that in Ahmedabad also.

Shri Modi said that the creation of a new Dholera Taluka will help the people immensely. Government offices will come here and it will have its own Taluka Panchayat. Talking about the development in Gujarat, Shri Modi stated that the budget for irrigation during the last Congress rule in 1996-1997 was Rs. 600 crore whereas today, Rs. 700 crore is spent on getting water for Dhandhuka and Dholka!

Shri Modi recalled that Mrs. Sonia Gandhi visited Chhota Udepur in 2007 and that time the media wrote extensively on how there were record number of people attneding her meet and how Modi is wiped out but in the ensuing elections the Congress was wiped out in Chhota Udepur. Similarly, this time Mrs. Gandhi came to Rajkot and the result will be a step ahead of what it was in Chhota Udepur. The Chief Minister said that if somebody commits a mistake, the people forgive him but asked if the people can fogive those who cheat? Shri Modi affirmed that the Congress is known to cheating the people and listed out instances of the Congress cheating. He spoke about how the Congress promised free power to the farmers of Maharashtra but 4 years on nothing of that sort has happened. They promised to being down prices in 100 days but prices have only increased. He asked if this is not cheating the peope to which the unanimous reply was “YES!”

Shri Modi declared that the Congress cheats their own workers as well. He spoke about how the Congress told their workers that there will be early elections. After that they said they will come out with the list of candidates by 1st May and that was later extended to 15th August. Shri Modi asked how can leave a state to those people who tell lies to their own workers? Shri Modi affirmed that the Congress has been in power in New Delhi for the past 8 yeats but have we heard any good news from Delhi? He stated that we cant let Gujarat come into the hands of those who looted the nation and added that he is a Chowkidar who will not let the land come into Gujarat.

The felicitation was very well attended by people from all age groups and communities. Women turned up in large numbers to join the occasion.

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has highlighted the transformative role played by women in the journey towards a developed India, underlining the government’s focus on women-led development over the past 11 years.

The Prime Minister said that our mothers, sisters and daughters have seen times when they had to face difficulties at every step. But today they are not only participating actively in the resolution of a developed India, but are also setting examples in every field from education to business. Shri Modi further added that the successes of Nari Shakti in the last 11 years are a matter of pride for all citizens.

The Prime Minister noted that the NDA Government has redefined women-led development through a series of impactful initiatives. These include ensuring dignity through the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, financial inclusion via Jan Dhan accounts, and empowerment at the grassroots level.

He cited Ujjwala Yojana as a milestone that brought smoke-free kitchens to several homes. He also highlighted how MUDRA loans have enabled lakhs of women to become entrepreneurs and pursue their dreams independently. The provision of houses in women’s names under the PM Awas Yojana has also made a remarkable impact on their sense of security and empowerment.

The Prime Minister also recalled the Beti Bachao Beti Padhao campaign, which he described as a national movement to protect the girl child.

Shri Modi affirmed that in all sectors- including science, education, sports, StartUps, and the armed forces-women are excelling and inspiring several people.

The Prime Minister shared these remarks through a series of posts on X;

"हमारी माताओं-बहनों और बेटियों ने वो दौर भी देखा है, जब उन्हें कदम-कदम पर मुश्किलों का सामना करना पड़ता था। लेकिन आज वे ना सिर्फ विकसित भारत के संकल्प में बढ़-चढ़कर भागीदारी निभा रही हैं, बल्कि शिक्षा और व्यवसाय से लेकर हर क्षेत्र में मिसाल कायम कर रही हैं। बीते 11 वर्षों में हमारी नारीशक्ति की सफलताएं देशवासियों को गौरवान्वित करने वाली हैं।
