"Places such as India Gate, Red Fort, Parliament, North or South Block have been beautified. Kranti Mandir Museum dedicated to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose has been constructed at the Red Fort. A Bhavya Bharat festival is also celebrated at the Red Fort," Modi said.

He also talked about the construction of a river front at the Yamuna river.

"Besides projects for cleaning Yamuna, our government is also working on Yamuna River Front," the Prime Minister said.

"Work is underway for the Rapid Rail System. Steps have been taken to reduce travel time between Delhi and Meerut. A provision of about 2.5 thousand crore has been made in the budget for the system," he added.
