If I am giving this guarantee to the country, it is because of all of you, my kin in Kashi.”
He said, “It is our endeavour that no beneficiary should be deprived of whatever schemes of poor and public welfare have been made by the central government.

Those who have benefited from the schemes are confident that their lives will get better now.”

He said, Projects launched today will give impetus to the development of Kashi. “I said from the Red Fort that we should visit at least 15 cities. I am happy that those who used to
go abroad earlier are visiting their country today. If tourism increases, development increases. The income of the people of Kashi has increased due to an increase in tourism. The government is continuously working for this,” he said. Earlier, the Prime Minister flagged off four new trains from Varanasi.
