Modi lays foundation stone for Ravidas memorial in MP

Hindustan Times  

Bhopal/Sagar: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday performed ‘bhoomi pujan’ and laid the foundation stone for the construction of a temple-cum-memorial of social reformer Saint Ravidas in Sagar district of poll-bound Madhya Pradesh. Addressing the public after laying the foundation of the structure, the prime minister said, “The memorial is steeped in the spirit of ‘Samrasta’ as the soil from over 20,000 villages and water from more than 300 rivers became part of Sant Ravidas’ upcoming temple-cum-memorial.” The Saint Shiromani Gurudev Shri Ravidas ji Memorial will be constructed at a cost of over ₹100 crore in Badtuma village. “The governments which ruled for decades had failed to provide water to the poor whereas Dalits, underprivileged localities and tribal areas are now getting piped water due to Jal Jeevan Mission,” Modi said. He was raising his voice against malpractices prevalent in the society.” Modi, who was on a day-long visit to Madhya Pradesh, which will go to assembly polls later this year, also inaugurated two road projects worth ₹1,580 crore and the doubling of Kota-Bina rail route developed at a cost of over ₹2,475 crore.
