    Earlier in October 2022, PM Modi had laid the foundation stone for the Vadodara Final Assembly Line (FAL).

    In Amreli, PM Modi will inaugurate the Bharat Mata Sarovar in Dudhala, Amreli. This project was developed through a collaboration between the Government of Gujarat and the Dholakia Foundation under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model.

    Dholakia Foundation has improved a check dam, which originally, the dam could hold 4.5 crore liters of water but after deepening, widening, and reinforcing it, the capacity has increased to 24.5 crore liters. This improvement has raised water levels in nearby wells and bores which is helping local villages and farmers by providing better irrigation.
