Ahmedabad: PM Narendra Modi embarked on his two-day visit to Gujarat on Saturday. On the first day of his visit, PM addressed a gathering at the ‘Khadi Utsav’ programme held on Sabarmati Riverfront in evening on Saturday.

PM Modi appealed to countrymen to gift only products made in Khadi village industries in the coming festivals. He said, "We have seen that Khadi became the force of the freedom movement and broke the chains of slavery. The same Khadi can become an inspiration to make India develop and selfreliant. On the occasion of 75 years of independence, 7,500 sisters and daughters created history by spinning yarn on Charkha. Spinning Charkha took me back to my childhood days."
