總理莫迪週三表示，比姆·拉奧·安貝德卡博士設想建造水壩、建立中央水務中心

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said Dr Bhim Rao Ambedkar had envisioned the construction of dams, the establishment of the Central Water Commission, and various water resources and Jal Shakti schemes in the country, but the Congress never gave credit to him for any of these.

週三，莫迪總理表示，比姆·拉奧·安貝德卡博士曾設想在該國修建水壩、建立中央水務委員會以及各種水資源和Jal Shakti 計劃，但國會從未將這些歸功於他。

“No one knows who was the first person to emphasise the importance of Jal Shakti after independence, as the Congress government hid the truth and gave credit for everything to just one of its own leaders,” the PM averred.

總理斷言：“沒有人知道誰是獨立後第一個強調賈爾沙克蒂重要性的人，因為國大黨政府隱瞞了真相，只將一切歸功於自己的一位領導人。”

“It was Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar’s vision that led to the construction of dams in the country and shaped water resources and river schemes after independence,” Mr Modi claimed.

莫迪聲稱：“正是巴巴薩赫布·安貝德卡博士的願景導致了該國修建水壩，並在獨立後塑造了水資源和河流計劃。”

He said this during his speech after laying the foundation stone for the Ken-Betwa River Linking project at Khajuraho in Chhatarpur district of Madhya Pradesh on Wednesday, the 100th birth anniversary of the late Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee.

週三，即已故總理阿塔爾·比哈里·瓦杰帕伊誕辰 100 週年，他在中央邦恰塔爾普爾區克久拉霍為肯貝特瓦河連接工程奠基後發表講話時發表講話。

PM Modi also released a commemorative stamp and a coin in the memory of former Prime Minister Vajpayee on his birth centenary on this occasion.

莫迪總理也在前總理瓦杰帕伊誕辰一百週年時發行了紀念郵票和硬幣。

Mr Modi charged that the Congress believes being in the government is its right, but whenever Congress governments have been in power in the past, they have done nothing about providing good governance to the people.

莫迪指責國大黨認為參與政府是其權利，但過去國大黨政府執政時，他們在為人民提供良好治理方面沒有採取任何行動。

The PM also virtually inaugurated the Omkareshwar Floating Solar Project in the Khandwa district of the state on the occasion.

總理也親自為該州坎德瓦地區的 Omkareshwar 浮動太陽能計畫揭幕。

當天，莫迪總理還為耗資 43.7 億盧比的 1,153 座 Atal Gram Sewa Sadans 建築舉行了「bhoomi pujan」儀式。

Union Water Resources Minister C R Patil and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav handed over two ‘kalash’ (urns) containing waters from the Betwa and Ken rivers, respectively, to PM Modi, who poured them over a model of the project to launch the ambitious project.

聯合水資源部長CR Patil 和中央邦首席部長Mohan Yadav 博士將兩個分別裝有Betwa 河和Ken 河水的“卡拉什”（甕）交給莫迪總理，莫迪將它們倒在該項目的模型上，以啟動該項目雄心勃勃的項目。
