Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday arrived in Gujarat capital for a
three-day visit to his home state to throw open his pet biennial
Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit besides other events in the capital and
Ahmedabad.
He inaugurated the Vibrant Gujarat Trade Show at the
Mahatma Mandir Exhibition and Convention Centre, where over 25
industrial and business sectors will be showcased.
The Prime
Minister will later in the evening inaugurate Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel
Institute of Medical Sciences and Research in Ahmedabad.
Culled
from the decades-old Vadilal Sarabhai Hospital, this is a 78-metre-high
state-of-the-art super-specialty public hospital built by Ahmedabad
Municipal Corporation and is equipped with all modern amenities,
including an air ambulance.
According to officials, this will be a
completely paperless hospital and is a part of the Ayushman Bharat
initiative. Modi will inspect the facilities at the hospital and address
a gathering.
He would also throw open Ahmedabad Shopping
Festival, 2019, which official sources say has been planned on the lines
of the Dubai Shopping Festival. The Prime Minister will unveil the
festival mascot. Modi will also address a public gathering here.
On
Friday, he will inaugurate the 9th edition of Vibrant Gujarat Summit at
the Mahatma Mandir. Modi had conceptualised the summit as Gujarat Chief
Minister in 2003 to position Gujarat as an ideal investment
destination.
"The summit provides a platform for brainstorming on
agendas of global socio-economic development, knowledge sharing and
forging effective partnerships," an official release said.
Modi
will be in Hazira in Surat on Saturday to mark the setting up of the
Hazira Gun Factory. From here, he will leave for Silvassa in the Union
Territory of Dadra Nagar Haveli. He will lay the foundation stone for
various development projects.
The Prime Minister will fly out out
Gujarat on the same day for Mumbai where he will inaugurate the new
building of National Museum of Indian Cinema.
