New Delhi, Feb 20: Prime Minister Narendra Modi made it a point to remind the people about his Lalkar Rally in Jammu on December 1, 2013, when he was BJP’s Prime Ministerial candidate.
He recalled giving the guarantee in 2013 at the same venue about creating IIT and IIM in Jammu and Kashmir.
That guarantee, he said, is being fulfilled today. That is why people say “Modi’s guarantee means guarantee of fulfillment of the guarantee”, he added.
Listing the educational infrastructure projects of today’s event, Prime Minister Modi emphasized that the advancement of education and skill development sectors on such a scale was a distant reality ten years ago.
“But, this is new India”, the Prime Minister said, highlighting that the government of today indulges in maximum expenditure for the modern education of the present and future generations.
In the last 10 years, Modi informed that the country has witnessed a record number of schools, colleges, and universities including 50 new degree colleges in Jammu and Kashmir.
He further added that 45,000 new children who did not attend schools have now been admitted, and expressed delight that girl students need not travel far for education. “There was a time when schools were run, while today schools are enhanced”, Prime Minister Modi added. |
