Average capital investment in railway projects in Gujarat grew over five times under the Modi government compared to the previous UPA government, said junior Railway Minister Manoj Sinha Wednesday. Average capital investment was Rs 3,327 crore per year between 2014-19 in Gujarat compared to Rs 589 crore a year in the previous five years, said the Minister of State for Railways.
Sinha, who was here to address a BJP event, exuded confidence in the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying “there is nobody in a position to challenge him.”
He termed the anti-BJP coalition being forged by the opposition as “unprincipled, negative”.Reacting to the Pulwama terror attack in which 40 CRPF soldiers were killed on February 14, Sinha said, “The country trusts its prime minister and the government will not let their sacrifice go waste.”
