Modi calls for continuation of 'double engine' govt for self-sufficient Goa

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday called for the need to have continuation of "double engine" government in order to realise the vision of making Goa self-sufficient. He said this while interacting with the beneficiaries and stakeholders of 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat Swayampurna Goa programme' via video-conferencing.

Swayampurna Goa will provide employment and self employment opportunities to youths and unemployed people," he added. Modi said that it is not just a programm
