New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today dedicated Asia’s largest power project ‘Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Power Project’ to the Nation via video conference.
Speaking on the occasion the Prime Minister said the Rewa project will make the entire region a major hub for pure and clean energy in this decade. The Prime Minister praised the effort in that it will also supply power to the Delhi Metro, along with the entire region surrounding Rewa.
He said very soon Madhya Pradesh would be the main centre of Solar Energy in India, as such major projects are in progress in Neemuch, Shajapur, Chattarpur and Omkareshwar. The biggest beneficiaries of this would be the poor, the middle class, the tribals, the farmers of Madhya Pradesh and solar energy will be a medium of energy needs of the 21st century because solar power is sure, pure and secure, he added.
PM Modi termed such Solar Energy projects are a true representation of Aatmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliant India). He also said the economy is an important aspect of self-reliance and progress. Referring to the regular dilemma whether to focus on Economy or Ecology, Prime Minister said India resolved such dilemmas by focussing on Solar Energy Projects and other environment friendly measures. Economy and Ecology are not contradictory but complementary to each other, he added.
