External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, a Rajya Sabha MP from Gujarat, on Tuesday inaugurated a new gymnastic hall upgraded with modern equipment, as well as a smart classroom and an anganwadi built with MPLAD funds in Narmada district.
On the second day of his Gujarat tour, he also visited a Post Office Passport Seva Kendra at Rajpipla town in the tribal-dominated district. In a post on X, the
BJP Member of Parliament commended the Centre’s effort in providing “smooth and efficient passport services at grassroots level.”
The Union Minister visited Lachras, one of the villages adopted by him in the district, and inaugurated a smart anganwadi (child care centre) and a digital classroom. “In the age of mobile, smart classrooms make school interesting for students,” he told media persons after inaugurating the facility.
“When I became a minister six years ago and visited Narmada district for the first time, people demanded a passport centre. I visited there after a long time, and it is working fine with 30-40 appointments a day. Facilitates for passports have increased, and people think I have done something good for them as the External Affairs Minister,” he said.
“Visited Post Office Passport Seva Kendra, Rajpipla. Commend their efforts in providing smooth and efficient passport services at grassroots level,” the diplomat-turned-politician said in a post.
