TIL Desk/National/Ahmedabad/ Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday said the development of villages is essential to achieve the goal of making India a “five trillion dollar economy”.
“I am of the firm belief that development of the country is not possible without the development of its villages,” Shah said, while addressing the 41st convocation ceremony of the Institute of Rural Management (IRMA) here in Gujarat.
Over 250 students received their management degrees in rural management during the ceremony. “Mahatma Gandhi had said the soul of the country is in our villages and I firmly believe that,” the Union minister said.
“If villages are prosperous, self-reliant and with good facilities, the country will be prosperous. It will help achieve the dream of Atmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India) and making India a five trillion dollar economy,” he said.
Amit Shah said he is excited to see so many students are passing out from the IRMA and will work for the rural development and management.
