Speculations are doing rounds about Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s next visit to Gujarat. Some speculate that the PM is likely to visit Gujarat on September 17 to seek blessings from his mother on his birthday.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to visit Gujarat on his 71st birthday on September 17. Nitin Patel, the deputy chief minister of Gujarat and the spokesperson of the state government, said the PM may inaugurate the UN Mehta Hospital building. Patel visited the newly built facility on Friday.
“The state government has acted in line with PM Modi’s vision of developing UN Mehta Hospital and the new building on the Civil Hospital campus in Ahmedabad.” Patel said. “The Rs 300 crore UN Mehta Heart Hospital building and the 1,200-bed Civil Hospital facility are ready and the PM is expected to inaugurate these buildings.”
Dy CM Patel added that when Covid-19 cases were being reported earlier this year, both the newly constructed buildings were used to treat coronavirus patients.
Although Dy CM Patel did not specify the date on which the buildings will be inaugurated, sources in the state government said they believe the PM will choose his September 17 visit for the formal opening. The PM has been visiting his home state on his birthday to seek the blessings of his mother Hiraba who lives in Gandhinagar with her younger son.
