Bollywood actors Arbaaz Khan and Vivek Oberoi call on Shri Modi.

Both actors shared some of their upcoming projects and their proposed partnership with Gujarat on the occasion.

Amitabh Bachchan is the Brand Ambassador for Gujarat tourism, and is regularly seen in the ‘Khushbu Gujarat Ki’ campaign.

On Saturday 26th May 2012, two leading Bollywood actors Arbaaz Khan and Vivek Oberoi met Chief Minister Shri Narendra Modi in Gandhinagar.

Mr. Khan, who was in Gujarat in connection with an advertisement shooting, called on the Chief Minister and spoke about his intention to shoot for his upcoming film Dabangg-2 in Gujarat.

 

 

Mr. Oberoi met Shri Modi and informed him about his proposed project to make entertainment places for the weekends, in which Gujarat would figure too.

 

 

Apart from these two prominent actors, various leading luminaries from the film industry have called on Shri Modi in the past. The most famous name is that of Mr. Amitabh Bachchan, who is the Brand Ambassador for Gujarat tourism. His ‘Khushbu Gujarat Ki’ ad campaign has become a household phenomenon and a recent report stated that with this, a record 25-lakh tourists visited Gujarat for the year 2011-2012. Shri Modi often points out that earlier Gujaratis made the best tourists but now Gujarat is a preferred tourist destination in its own right, drawing tourists from all parts of the world.

In the recent past, popular actor Mr. Ajay Devgn met Shri Modi in connection where among other things, he even discussed his 25 MW solar power plant investment at Charanka with the Chief Minister. Other actors who have met Shri Modi are Mr. Jackie Shroff, Mr. Sunil Shetty, Mr. Anupam Kher and Ms. Preity Zinta.

PM Modi to inaugurate ICA Global Cooperative Conference 2024 on 25th November
November 24, 2024
PM to launch UN International Year of Cooperatives 2025
Theme of the conference, "Cooperatives Build Prosperity for All," aligns with the Indian Government’s vision of “Sahkar Se Samriddhi”

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will inaugurate ICA Global Cooperative Conference 2024 and launch the UN International Year of Cooperatives 2025 on 25th November at around 3 PM at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi.

ICA Global Cooperative Conference and ICA General Assembly is being organised in India for the first time in the 130 year long history of International Cooperative Alliance (ICA), the premier body for the Global Cooperative movement. The Global Conference, hosted by Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Limited (IFFCO), in collaboration with ICA and Government of India, and Indian Cooperatives AMUL and KRIBHCO will be held from 25th to 30th November.

The theme of the conference, "Cooperatives Build Prosperity for All," aligns with the Indian Government’s vision of “Sahkar Se Samriddhi” (Prosperity through Cooperation). The event will feature discussions, panel sessions, and workshops, addressing the challenges and opportunities faced by cooperatives worldwide in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in areas such as poverty alleviation, gender equality, and sustainable economic growth.

Prime Minister will launch the UN International Year of Cooperatives 2025, which will focus on the theme, “Cooperatives Build a Better World,” underscoring the transformative role cooperatives play in promoting social inclusion, economic empowerment, and sustainable development. The UN SDGs recognize cooperatives as crucial drivers of sustainable development, particularly in reducing inequality, promoting decent work, and alleviating poverty. The year 2025 will be a global initiative aimed at showcasing the power of cooperative enterprises in addressing the world’s most pressing challenges.

Prime Minister will also launch a commemorative postal stamp, symbolising India’s commitment to the cooperative movement. The stamp showcases a lotus, symbolising peace, strength, resilience, and growth, reflecting the cooperative values of sustainability and community development. The five petals of the lotus represent the five elements of nature (Panchatatva), highlighting cooperatives' commitment to environmental, social, and economic sustainability. The design also incorporates sectors like agriculture, dairy, fisheries, consumer cooperatives, and housing, with a drone symbolising the role of modern technology in agriculture.

Hon’ble Prime Minister of Bhutan His Excellency Dasho Tshering Tobgay and Hon’ble Deputy Prime Minister of Fiji His Excellency Manoa Kamikamica and around 3,000 delegates from over 100 countries will also be present.
