Modi advocates healthy competition among districts
New Delhi : A spirit of healthy competition among district administrations will create an atmosphere conducive to positive change, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said here on Thursday.
He made the remarks at the 10th Civil Services Day awards ceremony.
“There should be healthy competition among the district administrations in the country in the discharge of duties,” Modi said.
If their districts lag behind and don’t get noticed for good work, then those heading them must ask themselves why, he said.
The prime minister said the district administrations must try to win the trust of the people and be proactive.
“Only being an administrator and controller is not enough. Everybody at every level has to become an agent of change. Let us create an atmosphere where everyone can contribute. The energy of 125 crore Indians will take the nation ahead,” he said.
He urged people to take every hurdle as an opportunity.
“Only those people will be able to prosper in life who don’t get worn out and take every hurdle as an opportunity,” said Modi.
The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
