The Bharatiya Janata Party is set to celebrate 'Seva Pakhwada' (Service Fortnight) in Rajasthan from September 17, coinciding with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's birthday. Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma said the initiative is a step towards realising the vision of a 'Developed India 2047.' The 'Seva Pakhwada' will be observed by the BJP nationwide from September 17 to October 2, which marks the birthdays of Mahatma Gandhi and Lal Bahadur Shastri.
Speaking at a state-level workshop, Sharma said that Prime Minister Modi's journey from a party worker to the nation's leader teaches the values of putting the nation first, integrity, hard work, and service. "Prime Minister Modi's historic efforts for the upliftment of the underprivileged and the poor are unparalleled," said Sharma. "His initiatives such as providing permanent housing for the poor, toilets for every household, electricity for every village and universal healthcare demonstrate his far-sightedness and dedication."
He added that the 'Developed India 2047' vision outlined by the Prime Minister is a transformative goal, and 'Seva Pakhwada' will play an essential role in realising this vision.
Sharma also took aim at the opposition over the recently passed anti-conversion Bill in the state Assembly, accusing the Congress of engaging in appeasement politics. "The Congress is in pain over this Bill," he said. "They always create roadblocks in the Assembly while making statements on social media instead of addressing issues directly in the House."
The BJP's in-charge for Rajasthan, Dr Radhamohan Das Agarwal, said that a series of events, including cleanliness drives, blood donation camps, health camps, and a 'Namo Marathon', would be held during the 'Seva Pakhwada'.
