Launching the second round of his Sadhbhavna mission, Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi today observed a day long fast here saying that it would help create communal harmony and brotherhood in the state.
Modi said another reason for him observing the fast was to “expose” those trying to defame Gujarat.
Hundreds of people from the various places came to see Modi and wished him well.
To counter the Chief Minister, Congress MP from Jamnagar Vikram Madam, along with couple of local party MLAs, held a parallel one-day fast about three kilometres from the venue of Modi’s fast.
“The Sadbhavna Mission will help create an atmosphere of communal harmony and brotherhood among people of Gujarat,” Modi said in the concluding session of the event.
