80-member delegation from Pune meets Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi
Ahmedabad, 28 June 2012
A high-level delegation of 80 builders, construction professionals and members of Pune Municipal Corporation in Maharashtra, led by Ms. Prachi Javdekar, today called on Chief Minister Narendra Modi and complimented him for adopting a successful strategy of planning and development of cities in Gujarat.
The Pune delegation is on a four-day tour of the major projects in big cities of the state. They were impressed by the development in Gujarat and expressed desire to take part in Gujarat’s urban development vision.
Mr. Modi briefed them about the finer points of the state’s urban development policy, transparency and good governance to implement Rs.7,000-crore urban projects to provide civic amenities. It was a decade of qualitative improvement, tourism and urban development with people’s participation. Kutch was a case of post-quake reconstruction.
He gave details of the Dholera Special Investment Region (SIR) and said Rs.100,000-crore Kalpsar Project would be the world’s largest artificial fresh water lake to solve water shortage for 100 years. He listed Sabarmati Riverfront Development, Kankaria Lakefront, BRTS Jan Marg, GIFT City, Kids City, Mahatma Mandir and futuristic Metro Rail as other major projects.
They discussed Gujarat’s initiatives in projects for economic empowerment, health, housing and employment of the urban poor.
Gujarat’s Principal Urban Development Secretary I.P. Gautam and GUDC Managing Director Mr. Hyder were also present during the meeting.

The Maharashtra land mafia is extremely bad. This land mafia has ruined Mumbai, and is now on the way to destroying quality of life in Pune. Please be very careful in dealing with land mafia.
bablooji you are totally correct when you say these people have destroyed here and now on the way to neighbour state. However one thing we must remember that such elements get ready help from our politicians here. There is no transparency here. However same people being business people, if they know the system of working, they either may not think of doing wrong or may not be able to adjust there under the prevailing system. all the best to them.
I agree with babloo and mr. H M Suthar…. In our nation anything goes…. A person who stole millions will get bail and enjoys life like anything….. MOST black money is in REAL ESTATE so all these people who do dirty dealings for someone else do not know that sooner or later they all will die and nothing they will take with them….,THIS is our MORAL-ETHICAL problem….. I tell all my friend EARN ETHICALLY and LIVE SPIRITUALLY….. JAY HIND….
PEOPLE tell me in CORRUPT system it is hard to live live and earn ethically…. YOU try and GOD will help you…. I know and as well you know that in the nation PEOPLE with POWER are the worst problem…. THEY do not INVEST or take chances, THEY only use POWER and get bribes to pass or approve …. and EVERY SIGN costs money….. FIR BHI MERA BHARAT MAHAN…….JAY HIND..
I have lived in Maharasthra for many years. There is an utter lack of vision at the state & city level. With visionary leadership at the top, Gujarat will continue to lead the way in redefining the concept of new India. Sab ka Saath, Saab ka Vikas – in action!!
