Our respected Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi recently inaugurated Ahmedabad’s Metro system. A ride on the Metro train with the honourable Education Minister Shri Jitendra bhai Vaghani was organized for students on Saturday 8th October 2022 as part of the Gujarat Government’s efforts to raise awareness.
More than300 students from the Middle Section participated in this event with their teachers. The excitement at meeting the Education minister and boarding the Metro was contagious. Students welcomed Shri Vaghani with flowers at the metro station on Saturday and interacted with him afterwards. A palpable excitement filled the air as students from other schools also participated in this exciting event.
Zebarites were on cloud nine after boarding the Metro. From the windows of the new swanky Metro, they could see how the city’s landscape had changed. Moreover, they enjoyed chatting with their friends, teachers, and representatives from the education department. In the midst of the ride, the Honourable Education Minister Shri Jitendra bhai Vaghani toured each compartment with the students. In addition to signing autographs, he spoke with the students. Doordarshan tower and Vastral Gaam Metro stations served as the ride’s starting and ending points. The government provided water bottles and refreshments to students.
This ride was organised for students to give them a first-hand experience of the newly launched transport facility in the city and information on how it will benefit our students in the long run. It was a memorable ride and will remain etched in the minds of our students for a long time to come.
