Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate and lay the foundation stone of a slew of development projects worth Rs 14,500 crores and declare Modhera as India’s first solar-powered village during a three-day visit to his home state Gujarat, starting Sunday.
On the first day of his visit, PM Modi will inaugurate and lay the foundation stone of multiple projects worth over Rs 3900 crores, including a light and sound show at Sun Temple, at Modhera village in Mehsana district.
He will declare Modhera village as India’s first 24×7 solar-powered village. “The first-of-its-kind project realises the PM’s vision of solarisation of the sun-temple town of Modhera,” said the prime minister’s office (PMO).
It involved developing a ground-mounted solar power plant and more than 1300 rooftop solar systems on residential and government buildings, all integrated with a Battery Energy storage system (BESS).
Other projects to be dedicated to the nation in Mehsana include the Gauge Conversion of the Sabarmati-Jagudan segment of the Ahmedabad-Mehsana Gauge Conversion project; ONGC’s Nandasan Geological oil production project; Sujalam Sufalam Canal from Kherava to Shingoda Lake; Dharoi Dam Based Vadnagar Kheralu and Dharoi Group Reform Scheme; and Projection Mapping at Sun Temple at Modhera.

On Monday, Prime Minister Modi will inaugurate various projects of over Rs 8000 crores at Amod in Bharuch, including the foundation laying of Bulk Drug Park at Jambusar, taking another step to make India self-reliant in the pharmaceutical sector.
