Happy Ram Navami to all countrymen, Maryada Purushottam Shri Ram’s life is the best ideal for how one should play every role in life
Lord Shri Ram lived a life in which he presented the best idea of how one should play the role of an ideal son, ideal husband, ideal king, and ideal commander without saying a word so that people can live for years and years.
Today I have come to this border darshan tourist place of Nadabet, and wish to acknowledge the imagination of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi
No one can understand this multidimensional concept and vision of Prime Minister Modi until it is seen firsthand
Under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, the government has been working to increase facilities of CAPF jawans and their families, from health checkups and housing satisfaction ratios to rationalization of duty
Under the Ayushman CAPF card, if any person in the family of a CAPF personnel suffers from any disease, they can receive treatment using the card
Systematic efforts are being made to take the nation to the highest position in every field in the world, ever since Shri NarendraModi became the Prime Minister
This effort will be successful because our Border Security Force personnel are at the borders with the protection of impenetrable security, you protect our borders, that is why development is possible on the borders
BSF personnel are guarding our6,385 km long border despite and storms, scorching heat, extreme cold, thus fulfilling the mantra of lifelong duty with devotion
An organization, which started with 25 battalions in 1965, today has 2,65,000 personnel in 193 battalions and 60 artillery regiments
The nation and citizensbelieve in the BSF and that this force of 2,65,000 is a guarantee of the country’s security
There is no other Border Security Force exceptBSF that works in such tough conditions, to prevent infiltration in Kashmir Valley, to maintain internal security in North-East and in some LWE areas, to remain alert for hours in knee-deep swamps even in difficult areas of acreek
Children should imbibe the feeling of respect for our border guarding force as a rite of passage, andafter seeing the heroics of BSFthey should commit themselves tocontribute to national security
I wish to thank everyone in the BSF for fulfilling the slogan of duty for life and also want to salute your bravery, on behalf of the people
When we see the full demonstration site of Nadabet and from here to the border, it is only then that we understand how our border guards work to protect us in difficult circumstances
I visit here will inculcate patriotism amongst children as well as a sense of belonging to our Armed Forces and security of our borders
Tourism will receive a boost and the huge problem of migration from the border villages will be removed and employment opportunities will also be generated when people come here, this is the beginning of the process of reaching the last village on the border
The Gujarat government has spent . 125 crore on the SeemaDarshan program in Nadabet
I can imagine that after 10 years, this sector of Nadabet will become the focus of employment of at least five lakh persons in Banaskantha district
Children should visit Nadabet, and people coming here should stay at least for a night in Banaskantha and visit Banaskantha
Children’s play facilities and the 100 feet high tricolor will all become centers of attraction
There are six galleries here which introduce us to all our borders
A gallery has been built for Gujarat tourism and also a gallery for Nadabet and Banaskantha
Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has a big dream for border tourism, here the Beating Retreat ceremony will be the center of attraction
I am confident that the three objectives of border security through border tourism, public communication with border guards and a sense of attraction in amongst the people towards border guards will be fulfilled by this program
