He noted the fourfold increase in internet users and record-breaking digital transactions in the past decade.
Rajasthan’s Role in National Growth
Modi acknowledged Rajasthan's significant contribution to India’s development, emphasizing its vast landmass, natural resources, and cultural richness. He lauded the state’s people for their hard work, honesty, and unwavering dedication to national progress. “When Rajasthan scales new heights of development, the country also rises with it,” he said.
The Prime Minister praised the proactive governance under Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma, emphasizing the state's achievements in welfare, infrastructure, and public services. He noted that efforts to curb corruption and crime have instilled confidence among citizens and investors alike.
