PM Modi Inaugurates Trauma Centre in Kathmandu, Nepal: Highlights

Kathmandu: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday inaugurated a trauma centre in Kathmandu, Nepal. He also spoke at the event.

Here are the highlights:

• I can never forget the love that Nepal has given me
• I am fortunate that I have been to Nepal again in a short span of time
• I have been to many countries recently, but the memories attached to Nepal... I can never forget the love that Nepal has given me
• This trauma centre is an example of the 'live' relations between Nepal and India (jeevant sambandh)... India will stand with Nepal in upgrading and maintaining this trauma centre
• I wanted to go to Janakpur, Lumbini and Muktinath by road so that I could experience first hand the difficulties faced by people traveling there. But due to lack of time, I couldn't go this time. I understand the disappointment of people there. I promise to visit these places as soon as I have the opportunity in the near future.
• There is a strong 'engine of trust and confidence' between India and Nepal.
• India is always ready to help save lives here. It's an honour for us that we can get to save lives of our own people.
• This is a medium of service. I am happy that I have got the opportunity to be here.
• In 100 days, India and Nepal began so many projects together because of vision of their leader.
• A thousand mega-watt power plant will start soon.
• We are also on the verge of reaching consensus on a motovehicle agreement.
• Bus service from Kathmandu to Delhi will not only benefit the common man but also give a boost to tourism.
• Have asked my officers if we can start Wi-Fi enabled buses from Kathmandu to Delhi.
• We need both highways and I-ways. India will work on your highways and I-ways.
• E-library will help us facilitate exchange and dissemination of knowledge.
• We are cooperating in the field of defence. We're giving Nepal and Dhruv helicopter today, we're also working on the police academy here.
• Your happiness puts a smile on our face.
  
• I urge political leaders in Nepal to arrive at a consensus on the Constitution.
• The Constitution should be inclusive and the makers in Nepal must ensure that it guarantees equal rights to all.
• Once made it can be amended, as it is in India, with two-thirds majority but everyone should feel that they have had their say in its initial iteration.
