Prime Minister Narendra Modi virtually inaugurated the newly constructed Rewa Airport from Banaras, marking Rewa as the sixth airport in the state. In his address, Prime Minister Modi highlighted the accelerated pace of development in the country, which is now progressing three times faster than before. He noted that within just 125 days of the new governments formation, work has commenced on schemes and projects exceeding Rs 15 lakh crore in value, with the majority of the budget dedicated to benefiting the poor, farmers and youth. A massive campaign is underway to build infrastructure across the country, including highways, new train routes and new airports. This effort is not merely about constructing with bricks, stones and iron but about enhancing convenience for citizens and creating job opportunities for the youth. The number of airports in India has more than doubled, growing from just 70 in 2014 to over 150 today and many old airports are also being renovated. Chief Minister Mohan Yadav remarked that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given the people of Vindhya a significant Diwali gift even before the festival. The inauguration of Rewa Airport will unlock new avenues for the regions development, transforming both its landscape and future. Vindhya is blessed with abundant natural resources and all the essentials for growth, but its development had been stalled for years. The lack of attention from previous governments hindered Vindhyas progress. However, now there is a focused effort to drive its development. In 1993, Rewa didnt even have a railway facility, but today it boasts an airport. Additionally, an expressway connecting Rewa to Bhopal will soon be constructed. Yadav said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is working with great enthusiasm on the fronts of national defense and development and his bold leadership fills the nation with pride. The defiance once shown by neighboring countries is no longer possible today, thanks to Prime Minister Modis courage, which has even extended to striking enemies on their own soil. Over 200 countries around the world look to Prime Minister Modi with anticipation. It was his bravery that ensured the safe return of Indian students trapped in Ukraine. Dr. Yadav also credited Prime Minister Modi for the initiation of the river-linking campaign in the state, noting that soon the waters of Rewa will flow back to Rewa itself.  Yadav said that the Regional Industry Conclave is being organized in Rewa on October 23 to speed up the industrial development of Vindhya. With this, there will be investment for industrial development on a large scale in the entire region. The establishment of industries will provide new employment opportunities. Industries based on agriculture and minerals will develop rapidly in Vindhya. There is good potential for the food industry in the entire division. Facility of container and cargo aircraft will soon be provided to transport goods from Vindhya. Also, Vindhya residents will be provided air travel for Rs 999. Due to the efforts of Prime Minister Modi and the UDAN scheme, even poor people have got the facility of air travel. Yadav said that air ambulance and heli service have been started for assistance to critical patients. Critical patients are being taken to State of the art hospitals by air free of cost. Today, on the day of Karva Chauth fast, Rewa has been gifted with an airport that has doubled the joy of festivity. 25 airstrips along with 6 airports have been developed in the state. Airstrips will be built in every district of the state. Airports will be built by developing the airstrips of Ujjain, Shivpuri and Datia.
