The 1,316-kilometre highway worth Rs. 20,000 crore will pass through the Indian states of Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, and Gujarat. “Bikaner, Rajasthan will get the privilege of inauguration and foundation stone laying of many projects today. These include the Amritsar-Jamnagar Greenfield Expressway,” said PM Modi on Twitter ahead of his visit. He added, “With this, where the lives of lakhs of people of the four states will be easier, the development will also get a new boost.” “I am happy that the road infrastructure that’s being built in Rajasthan will contribute towards the progress and development of the state,” said Union Roads and Transport Minister, Nitin Gadkari, on Saturday. PM Modi’s visit to the Rajasthan city was also expected to sway the votes in the upcoming elections to be contested for 35 Vidhan Sabha seats. “The enthusiasm of the people is telling that not only the temperature of the weather has risen in Rajasthan, but the temperature of the people has also risen against the Congress government,” said PM Modi while addressing the crowd in Bikaner, as quoted by news agency ANI. He added, “When the temperature of the public rises, it does not take time for the heat of power to subside and the power to change.” The Indian PM was in the midst of a two-day visit covering four states – Chhattisgarh, Uttar Pradesh, Telangana, and Rajasthan. Aside from UP, the other three states will hold elections later this year. (With inputs from agencies) WATCH WION LIVE HERE You can now write for wionews.com and be a part of the community.
