Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel inaugurated and laid the foundation stones for a total of 4,293 projects worth `1,014 crore at the state-level celebration of World Tribal Day in Sabarkantha district Friday.

An official release said the event was organised at an educational institute at Navi Metral village in Khedbrahma taluka.

Speaking on the occasion, the CM said the indigenous tribes, known as Adivasis or tribals, have been spiritually connected with nature for centuries and have worshipped Birsa Munda. As part of their efforts to preserve the rich history, proud culture, traditions, and identity of the tribal community, August 9 is celebrated every year as World Tribal Day, he said.

“The state government has always been committed to ensuring tribal communities, from Ambaji to Umargam, receive basic amenities such as water, healthcare, education, and employment. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has established Gujarat as a unique model for tribal development,” said CM Patel.
