The Prime Minister’s visit to Gujarat spans two days, with several significant events on his agenda. As part of his engagements, PM Modi will address the Officer Trainees of the 99th Common Foundation Course under Aarambh 6.0, themed “Roadmap for Aatmanirbhar and Viksit Bharat.” The training program features 653 Officer Trainees from 16 Indian civil services and three civil services from Bhutan.

On Thursday, PM Modi will participate in the Rashtriya Ekta Diwas celebrations, commemorating the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. The Prime Minister will offer floral tributes to the Iron Man of India and administer the Ekta Diwas pledge.

The celebrations will also feature the Ekta Diwas Parade, comprising 16 marching contingents from nine states and one Union Territory, along with units from four Central Armed Police Forces, NCC cadets, and a ceremonial band.

Among the parade’s special attractions are the Hell March by NSG, a daredevil biker show by BSF and CRPF personnel, an Indian martial arts demonstration by BSF, a piped band performance by school children, and a spectacular flypast by the Indian Air Force’s Surya Kiran aerobatic team.
