The statement said the Prime Minister will also take a ride on the Vande Bharat Express to Kalupur railway station on September 30.
After flagging off the Ahmedabad Metro rail project, he will take a metro ride from Kalupur station to Doordarshan Kendra station. PM Modi will also lay the foundation stone of the world’s first CNG Terminal at Bhavnagar and declare open the 36th National Games, which are being held for the first time in Gujarat.
The Prime Minister’s engagements also include inaugurating Phase I of DREAM City - a project aimed to complement the rapid growth of the diamond trading business in Surat.
He will also lay the foundation stone of a broad gauge railway line, which will make it easier for pilgrims to travel to Ambaji. PM Modi will visit the Ambaji temple and pay obeisance there. He will also attend Maha Aarti at Gabbar Tirtha.
According to the statement, PM Modi will lay the foundation stones and dedicate development projects to the nation worth over Rs 7,200 crore in Ambaji. |
