Additionally, the foundation stone will be laid for the four-laning of key stretches of National Highway-56, a project intended to improve connectivity in tribal regions and provide better access to the Statue of Unity. During his visit to Surat’s Hazira region, the Prime Minister is also expected to review ongoing industrial operations and infrastructure projects, highlighting the government's continued focus on economic development and infrastructure expansion.
