Prime Minister Narendra Modi is poised to revolutionize Rajasthan's infrastructure, launching a slew of projects worth Rs 17,000 crore, spanning key sectors such as transportation, energy, and water resources. Through a virtual event scheduled for Friday, PM Modi will kickstart these endeavors, symbolizing a significant stride towards progress and development.

In a bid to enhance connectivity and facilitate smoother transportation, the Prime Minister will inaugurate various national highway projects totaling over Rs 5,000 crore in Rajasthan. Notably, these projects include three segments of the eight-lane Delhi-Mumbai Greenfield Alignment (NE-4), designed to bolster regional connectivity and expedite travel.

Furthermore, emphasis has been placed on environmental sustainability and wildlife conservation in these projects, evident in the provision of animal underpasses and overpasses, alongside noise barriers to mitigate disruptions to wildlife habitats.

Additionally, he will initiate projects under the Jal Jeevan Mission, aimed at fortifying Rajasthan's water infrastructure to ensure access to clean drinking water.

This concerted effort underscores PM Modi's commitment to reshaping Rajasthan's infrastructure landscape and fostering avenues for economic growth and prosperity. The event, slated to unfold across 200 locations throughout Rajasthan, with a focal event in Jaipur, symbolizes a collective step towards a more developed and resilient Rajasthan.

In parallel, PM Modi will reinforce India's renewable energy ambitions by virtually inaugurating a 300 MW solar power plant by NLC India in Barsingsar, Rajasthan. This initiative aligns with the nation's pursuit of renewable energy sources and its commitment to realizing a sustainable, low-carbon future.
