PM Modi underscores development of Kedarnath
PM Modi will also lay the foundation stones for a slew of reconstruction projects in Kedarpuri, including renovation of Adi Guru Shankaracharya's tomb which was devastated in the flash floods of 2013
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday sought the blessings of 'Bhole Baba' in Kedarnath and pledge to devote himself fully to realising the dream of a developed India by 2022.
He offered prayers at Kedarnath Temple in Uttarakhand, a day before the portals of the Himalayan shrine close for winter. This is the second visit of PM Modi to the shrine this season. He visited it on May 3 when its gates had been reopened after the winter break.
Also, PM laid the foundation stones of five reconstruction projects and hit out at the Congress, saying he was not allowed to carry out redevelopment work after the 2013 deluge when he was Gujarat chief minister.
