We led the industrial revolution, the White revolution, now its time for a cultural revolution.
A thought come in my mind, have the people of Gujarat elected me to adorn my home? NO...if I want to adorn something. It will not be my home. It will be my Gujarat.
I dream of a society that is continuously creating knowledge, where each individual is a part of this creation, where youngsters can pursue courses with freedom of choice, where technology is used for universal access of education and yet the importance of the Guru is retained.
My stand has always been clear that I am from Gujarat and will keep working for the state.
My experience in Gujarat shows that howsoever big a problem might be, it is not insurmountable if we have the will to act.
I am a very optimistic man and only an optimistic man can bring optimism in the country.
We believe in Sarva Pantha Sambhav. We believe 'the truth is one, there are ways to reach it.
Mere good governance is not enough; it has to be pro-people and pro-active. Good governance is putting people at the center of development process.
From my experience of having served for 3000 days, I can say that anything can be achieved.
There is no red tapism in my state, only red carpet.
My struggle is to bring 'life' in 'file'.
Individual efforts can bring excellence but only collective efforts can deliver effectively.
Gujarat is all about Trade with Tradition, Commerce with Culture, Enterprise with Entertainment and Development with Disaster management.
People power must be combined with good governance to bring about real, deep and lasting change. This combination can achieve almost everything from eliminating corruption to ending malnutrition and illiteracy.
