Praising the 11-year regime of Prime Minister Narendra Modi as an era of phenomenal development in India, Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma said that a total of Rs 2,11,000 crore have been provided to the state since 2014 for investing in the Centre-sponsored schemes and projects.
Addressing a press briefing at the ruling BJP state headquarters on Tuesday, the CM said following the principle of "Sabka Sath Sabka Vikas", the government under the visionary leadership and guidance of Mr Modi has provided funds to states generously for accelerating the pace of development, setting the goal of making India the top economic power of the world by 2047.
"This, our leadership wants to achieve all-around performance in every sphere or sector of the economic activity. This has to be achieved with due equilibrium between economic development and promotion of the religious and cultural heritage and legacy of the glorious era of India," Sharma said.
