PM lays foundation stone and dedicates to the nation various development projects in Haryana
Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today laid the foundation stone and dedicated to the nation various development projects worth around ₹14,700 crore in Jind, Haryana. Expressing profound joy upon arrival at the site, the Prime Minister highlighted the region’s rich historical, martial, and spiritual legacy, uniquely blessed by the Shakti Peeth Mata Jayanti. Recalling his initial visits to the city decades ago for organizational duties, he fondly recalled the unforgettable affection he received, intrinsically linked to local culinary staples like Murrah buffalo dairy, desi bura, and ghevar. “This is no ordinary land; it is a profound land of history, bravery, religion, and immense pride,” observed Shri Modi.
Contrasting the timeless local flavors with the dramatically transformed developmental landscape of the region, the Prime Minister positioned the city as a shining reflection of the good governance model. Emphasizing that the entire state has firmly embarked on a new trajectory of progress over the past years, he noted that the day’s events are actively infusing this mission with powerful fresh momentum. “Today’s program is filling this exact mission of the government with completely new energy,” asserted Shri Modi.
Declaring that the region’s name has now been permanently etched into the pages of history, the Prime Minister proudly announced the launch of the country’s first hydrogen-powered train. Drawing a visionary parallel to the historic first train journey between Bombay and Thane, he stated that future generations will similarly immortalize this corridor whenever advanced green mobility is discussed. “I congratulate all of you and the entire country for this momentous step related to the deep modernization of Indian Railways,” affirmed Shri Modi.(UPDATED ON 17TH JULY 2026)
