“We have put Leh at the focus of our solar energy initiatives. We have to connect every corner of the country through power, rail, road and telecommunication,” Modi said.
The Prime Minister said development must be such that it positively transforms the lives of the common people.
He said solar light, environment and tourism are the assets of Jammu and Kashmir and all efforts would be taken for their development.
“We have kept Ladakh at the centre of our solar energy policy.
Now you will not live on borrowed power. You will live on your own solar powered electricity,” he said.
He said government is planning special projects including large-scale organic farming for the development of all Himalayan states including.
