The Prime Minister interacted with beneficiaries of various government schemes, expressing inspiration at how these initiatives foster better health, self-reliance, women’s empowerment, and improved agricultural practices.

The visit culminated with the laying of the foundation stone for the renovation of the Health Care facility in Kalpeni and the construction of five model Anganwadi Centres (Nand Ghars) in Androth, Chetlat, Kadmat, Agatti, and Minicoy islands.
