women. I strongly urge you all to visit the exhibition in the coming
days.
I take this opportunity to welcome you all to Gujarat and assure
you that you will not go back disappointed with the well-known
Gujarati hospitality. I hope you will make maximum use of your
time at the Summit- go visit the exhibitions, attend conferences
and meet new people. I myself had a wonderful time meeting
people through the various conferences, meets, discussions I
have attended over the past few days.
This event coincides with the world famous Kite Flying festival
and I invite you to be a part of this unique heritage of Gujarat
and experience the colourful skies across the state!
A special thanks to the partner nations, Japan and Canada, our
partner organizations andmy deepest appreciation to the various
departments of the Gujarat Government who have been working
day and night to make this Summit a success.
Welcome to Vibrant Gujarat 2013!
Yours,
Narendra Modi
