On his birthday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi gifted Madhya Pradesh a historic project—the country’s first and largest PM MITRA Park—laid in Dhar district’s Badnawar tehsil. The mega initiative, he said, will give a fresh boost to India’s economy, generate over 3 lakh jobs, and turn Madhya Pradesh into a global textile hub.
Addressing a massive rally, PM Modi called the park a “turning point for India’s textile industry”, aligning with his government’s vision of seven PM MITRA Parks nationwide to position India as the world’s textile capital. “From farm to fiber, factory to fashion, and fashion to foreign markets—this park will weave the story of a developed India,” he said.
The PM also launched several landmark initiatives, including:
‘Healthy Women, Strong Families’ mega campaign – 1 lakh health camps nationwide till October 2.
8th National Nutrition Month for maternal and child health.
‘Adi Seva Parv’ to empower tribal communities.
PM Matru Vandana Yojana aid worth ₹450 crore transferred to over 15 lakh women.
1 croreth sickle cell anemia screening card distributed.
‘Ek Bagia Maa Ke Naam’ plantation drive.
