In Rajkot, PM Modi inaugurated a newly-built Mahatma Gandhi Museum at Alfred High School, where Mahatma Gandhi did his matriculation in 1887. The school was renamed Mohandas Gandhi High School after independence. It was closed in 2017 after a decision was taken to convert it into a museum.

Mudra LNG Terminal and Other Projects

Speaking at the inauguration of the Mundra LNG Terminal, Anjar-Mundra Pipeline Project and the Palanpur-Pali Barmer Pipeline Project in Anjar in Gujarat’s Kutch district, the PM said that the LNG terminal is the highlight of today’s program.

The inauguration of the LNG terminal is the highlight of today’s programme. I am fortunate to have inaugurated three LNG terminals. Now, we are poised to make the fourth LNG terminal.

Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Feredation (Amul Parent Company) Plants

The prime minister, who is on a one-day visit to his home state, also launched various plants for the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), owner of the Amul brand, at Mogar in Anand district in Gujarat.

“The brand of Amul is known the world over. It has become an inspiration. This is an excellent model of empowerment,” said Prime Minister Modi while addressing farmers in the district.

“We are focussing on ‘Jan Dhan’, ‘Van Dhan’ and ‘Gobar Dhan’. This will help our farmers,” said PM Modi stressing on the importance of self empowerment and better facilities for milk farmers.

Congratulating Amul for its contribution towards the betterment of those who live in Anand as well as across the country, the PM said that Amul should think about what targets it can set for its own 75th anniversary and for 2022, when India marks 75 years of freedom.
