He further expressed confidence that the next time anything good
or bad happens in Gujarat these nations will remember the state
and its people. Shri Modi affirmed that the expansion of Gujarat,
a new Vishwa Roop is happening and for it to happen in such a
short time is a big achievement. Commenting further on the issue
he said, “Those who cannot stay without non-vegetarian food for
a day enjoyed our vegetarian dishes during their stay here.”
Have we thought why Swami Vivekananda’s dream of India as
world leader not yet fulfilled? Shri Modi
The Valedictory Session took place on the 150
th
birth anniversary
of Swami Vivekananda and Shri Modi paid glorious tributes to
Swami Vivekananda. He asked why we have not been able to
fulfill Swami Vivekananda’s dream of taking India to the pinnacle
of world leadership a reality and added that we can achieve this
with our youth.
“A nation with so many youth- what can it not do!” he asked. He
shared that the Gujarat Government has given great emphasis
to skill development. He pointed that in the coming years, the
world will require skilled workforce. “People say we export Ford,
Maruti but I say why can’t we export teachers? When a teacher
is exported a generation is created.”
I consider this to be the most successful event: Shri Modi
Shri Modi declared that he considers Vibrant Gujarat 2013 to be
the most successful Summit. He recalled that when the Summit
was first held there was immense negativity but the results have
proven to be something different.
He shared that on the lines of the Vibrant Gujarat Summit a
similar programme will be held for agriculture. He further said
that Government made such an effort in 2012 and the result was
very successful as the event saw participation by farmers and
representatives from 14 states.
