25 Years of PM Modi’s Resolution of Service

Calling this year extremely significant, the CM stated that the Prime Minister’s 25 years of service resolution are set to be completed on October 7, 2026. On October 7, 2001, Modi ji took oath as the Chief Minister of Gujarat.

Observing his glorious journey as Prime Minister, filled with penance, hard work, and dedication, countrymen are feeling proud of the New India. Under Modi ji’s leadership, a secure India now looks eye-to-eye and speaks with the world.

Two Yatras Commence Today

CM Yogi also shed light on the personality and work of PM Modi. He stated that two yatras are commencing today. Seventy-five years ago, Modi ji was born in the mythological village of Vadnagar in Gujarat. Carrying the waters of Gujarat’s sacred rivers, 10 yatras will start from there with 25 bikes each. Similarly, 10 yatras carrying the waters of 10 sacred rivers of Uttar Pradesh will depart from Kashi via various routes toward Vadnagar. These yatras will take the significance of Kashi and Vadnagar to 10 states. The holy waters of Uttar Pradesh’s rivers will be offered to Lord Hatkeshwar in Vadnagar, and Gujarat’s river waters will be dedicated to Baba Vishwanath.

CM Salutes the Youth

The Chief Minister stated that the youth, as symbols of energy, have become participants in this yatra. Saluting the youth dedicating their time to the 20-day bike yatra, the CM said that this yatra, promoting ‘Ek Bharat-Shreshtha Bharat’, requires youth to cover 100 kilometers daily and connect with four major programs. Through this adventure-filled journey, youth will also connect with dialogue and service programs in different states. Running from today until October 7, this yatra will always remain memorable.

The People of India are Participants in the PM’s Seva Sankalp Yatra

The CM stated that 75 years ago, a journey also began from Vadnagar. Born into an ordinary family there, people across the country and the world are witnessing Modi ji’s journey as the Prime Minister of India and the most popular leader globally. Every citizen of India has directly or indirectly participated in the service journey that Modi ji began from Gujarat 25 years ago.

Transformation in the Lives of Villages, Poor, Women, and Youth

The CM narrated the story of transformation over the Prime Minister’s glorious 25-year journey. He said that villages have become self-reliant while narrating their own changing stories. For decades after independence, the poor did not get housing, but PM Modi ji provided housing to 4 crore people in 12 years. Highlighting women’s dignity, the CM narrated the story of transformation. He noted that due to the lack of toilets at home, women had to wait for darkness to fall, but today, toilets built in 12 crore homes are symbols of women’s dignity.

Internet and Banking Services in Every Village

The Chief Minister stated that this 25-year journey of PM Modi ji’s service resolution tells the story of youth getting jobs according to their merit, without any recommendations or transactions. This journey also tells the story of transformation in the lives of every mother in 11 crore families under the Ujjwala Yojana. Villages that did not see electricity for decades after independence now glow with milky light in every house. Internet and banking services are reaching every village. This is also the story of the poor person whom PM Modi provided a healthy environment to establish as an ordinary family through his vision. This journey also encompasses the story of transformation in the lives of 60 crore people due to annual health insurance cover under Ayushman Bharat.

Transformation in the Lives of Youth

Discussing the startup ecosystem, the CM highlighted the transformation in the lives of youth. He stated that youth themselves say they will no longer chase jobs, but will provide jobs and transform the lives of others. By establishing an ecosystem in the country, the lives of crores of young people have been transformed. Success has been achieved in reviving traditional enterprises through artisans and handicraftsmen. This yatra will carry forward the story of transformation brought about by Stand-Up India and Digital India.

India at New Heights in High-Technology

The Chief Minister mentioned that 80 crore people have been continuously receiving free rations in the country since the COVID period. The CM also discussed road, air, rail connectivity, and metros through infrastructure. He noted that multiple units have been established in India in the semiconductor sector, and production has begun. India is attaining new heights in the fields of quantum computing, AI missions, drone technology, and robotics.

Wonderful Coordination of Heritage and Development

The CM stated that the world no longer looks at India with suspicion; rather, the country’s economy stands among the top 4 economies. The New India also respects its heritage. For the first time, a wonderful coordination of heritage and development is visible in India. The Kashi Vishwanath Dham, the enthronement of Lord Shri Ram in Ayodhya after 500 years, the Vindhyavasini Dham Corridor, the 2019 Kumbh and 2025 Prayagraj Mahakumbh, Badrinath Dham, Kedarpuri, and Mahakal Lok present a vision of New India.

The World is Witnessing PM Modi’s Penance

The Chief Minister stated that under PM Modi ji’s leadership, Yoga received global recognition, and the Kumbh was recognized by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage of humanity. This is also a part of that success story which the world is witnessing through the hard work, penance, and dedication of Narendra Modi ji as the Prime Minister of India and the world’s most popular leader.
