Narnaul, Sep 27 (PTI) Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Sunday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made public service the core purpose of his life, and through the 25 years journey of his public life, the welfare of the poor and taking the country to new heights have remained his key priorities.
Saini said that for PM Modi, 140 crore Indians are his family.
The pain of the poor, the concerns of farmers and the aspirations of the youth are his own. The dignity of mothers and sisters remains his foremost priority, while the courage of soldiers guarding the nation’s borders is his resolve, Saini said.
He was speaking at a programme organised at Goad village in Mahendragarh to welcome the ‘Seva Sankalp Yatra’, a motorcycle journey being undertaken from Vadnagar in Gujarat to Varanasi.
He welcomed the participants of the yatra and later flagged it off for its onward journey.
Saini said that Mahendragarh is a land of history, valour, public consciousness and national pride. Welcoming the yatra to the region, he termed its arrival a memorable occasion.
He said that the journey from Vadnagar to Varanasi also symbolises the inspiring life journey of Prime Minister Modi. While Vadnagar is his birthplace, Varanasi, from where he is an MP, is his “karmabhoomi”, from where the resolve to build a developed India by taking forward the country’s rich heritage alongside its modern aspirations has gained further momentum, he said.
Saini said that PM Modi has made public service the core purpose of his life.
After assuming office as the chief minister of Gujarat on October 7, 2001, he is set to complete 25 years of uninterrupted public service on October 7, he said.
Throughout this journey, the welfare of the poor and taking the country to new heights have remained his key priorities, he said.
Addressing the youth participating in the yatra, he called upon them to channel their energy towards nation-building, stay away from drugs, violence, despair and negativity, and make sports, libraries, laboratories, farms, industries and startups their fields of endeavour.
He urged the participants to undertake an act of service at every halt during the journey. He said the yatra should carry forward the message of service and patriotism and further strengthen the resolve of a developed India. PTI SUN MNK
