During his address at the Vibrant Gujarat Summit, Prime Minister Modi also remembered the Godhra incident. He recalled the violence that erupted in Gujarat following the incident. At the time, despite having limited experience as Chief Minister, he maintained unwavering faith in the people of Gujarat. He acknowledged that some individuals had ulterior motives and were intent on tarnishing Gujarat’s image. However, he and his government made the necessary decisions to lift Gujarat out of this negativity.
Prime Minister Modi emphasized that those pursuing their agenda were interpreting events according to their own perspective. They propagated the idea that Gujarat would witness an exodus of youth, businesses, and industries. There was a concerted effort to discredit Gujarat on the global stage. The narrative that Gujarat would never recover prevailed. In the face of this crisis, Prime Minister Modi made a resolute commitment to lead Gujarat out of it, regardless of the challenges.
He underscored that their efforts not only transformed Gujarat but also envisioned a brighter future for the state, with ‘Vibrant Gujarat’ serving as a vital platform to boost the self-confidence of the state’s residents.”
