Highlighting the impact of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, Shah said, 'The 11-year tenure of PM Modi will be written in golden letters. Long-pending historic decisions were taken with bold determination. Today, India is the world's fourth-largest economy and is poised to become the largest by 2047. This is a new India — one that does not tolerate injustice against its women."
'Operation Sindoor has made the entire world understand the significance of the sindoor on our mothers' and sisters' foreheads. It has restored their honour and raised their dignity globally," Shah said.
The event began with a special puja, followed by cultural presentations led by Sangeet Natak Akademi Chairperson Sandhya Purecha and Sarfoji Raje Bhosale Sanstha.
Shah congratulated the Madhavbaug family for 150 years of dedicated service to society through faith, culture, and welfare. He emphasised the need for such institutions to also serve as centres for learning our mother tongue, and imparting knowledge of the Gita, Vedas, and Upanishads along with health services.
Fadnavis lauded the temple's 150-year journey as a moment of immense pride.
'This temple is not just a place of worship; it is the abode of the divine. Through Madhavbaug, continuous service — from cow protection to social outreach — has become a way of life," he said.
