‘Narendra Modi’s 10 years saw more growth than 70 years of all past govts’: Union Minister Amit Shah
Union Home Minister Amit Shah said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 10-year tenure, there has been more development than in the 70 years of all previous governments since independence.
India now boasts the second-largest road network in the world, the third-largest metro rail network, and the fourth-largest rail network.
He also highlighted that 136 Vande Bharat trains are running in the country, and 97 percent of the broad-gauge network has been electrified.
Shah was speaking after he virtually inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for several development works worth Rs. 146 crore in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
Amit Shah began his address by wishing the countrymen a happy and auspicious Holi festival. He mentioned that three projects were being e-inaugurated, and their foundations were being laid virtually.
One of the key developments is the construction of a railway overbridge, approximately 1 km long, on the Ahmedabad-Viramgam railway track at Sanand-Chekhla-Kadi Road, with an investment of Rs 60 crore.
Shah emphasized that once the overbridge is completed, it will significantly enhance convenience for local residents in their daily commute.
