During Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s rally in Bhavnagar on Saturday, a young girl named Jasmika Bansal drew attention by presenting a specially designed photo collage depicting memorable moments from his life with his late mother, Heeraben Modi.
Speaking about the gesture, Jasmika says she feels inspired by the Prime Minister’s bond with his mother. Her mother, Richa Manish Bansal, describes the presentation as a unique birthday gift and expresses gratitude that PM Modi accepted it, calling it a special moment for their family.
The collage features images of the Prime Minister from childhood through different stages of his public life, including a touching photograph with his late mother.
The gift resonates with the audience, earning appreciation from those attending the event.
Earlier in the day, during the ‘Samudra Se Samriddhi’ programme, PM Modi inaugurated and laid foundation stones for development projects worth over ₹34,200 crore across multiple sectors.
A significant share of these projects focuses on the maritime sector, where investments of over ₹7,870 crore aim to upgrade critical infrastructure at major Indian ports.
Addressing a large gathering at Jawahar Maidan, PM Modi underlines Bhavnagar’s central role in India’s progress ‘from ocean to prosperity’.
He congratulates the people of Gujarat and expresses gratitude for the birthday wishes, calling the love and blessings from across India and the world his ‘greatest treasure and strength’.
Several children present paintings and sketches to the Prime Minister, who thanks them and instructs officials to collect the artworks.
Highlighting the ongoing ‘Sewa Pakhwada’ from Vishwakarma Jayanti to Gandhi Jayanti, he notes widespread participation in blood donation drives, cleanliness campaigns and health camps. Over one lakh people in Gujarat alone have donated blood during this period.
PM Modi praises these community efforts, especially initiatives benefiting women’s health, and urges continued participation to strengthen the spirit of selfless service.
