On January 13, PM Modi described the launch of the cruise service on the river Ganges as a historic moment. This will usher in a new era of tourism in India.
He said, “Today is the joyous festival of Lohri, in the coming days we will also celebrate many festivals like Uttarayan, Makar Sankranti, and Pihu Pongal. I congratulate all the people celebrating these festivals and give my best wishes”.
comrades,
Our festivals, charity, penance and austerity, our faith, and our beliefs have their own importance for the accomplishment of our resolutions and the role of our rivers is important in this too. At such a time, we all are witnessing such a big celebration related to Nadi Jal Marg.
Today, Ganga Vilaskrit, the world’s longest river water journey between Kashi and Dibrugarh, has started, due to which many tourist places of eastern India are going to come more prominently in the World Tourism Map.
comrades,
“Ganga ji is not just a water body for us, but she is the witness of penance of this great land since ancient times. Mother Ganges has always nourished crores of Indians, inspired. What can be more unfortunate than this is that after the independence of the entire strip on the banks of Ganga ji, it kept getting separated in disorder, so leave the matter of development”.
