Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Samrat Samprati Museum in Koba, Gandhinagar, on the occasion of Mahavir Jayanti today. The museum is dedicated to Jain history and the life of Samrat Samprati, his rule, and his message of non-violence. Addressing a public gathering on the occasion, the Prime Minister said that at the Koba pilgrimage site, values are preserved, the cultural ethos is strengthened, and knowledge is nurtured. He described it as a confluence of three streams – study, spiritual practice, and self-discipline. He stated that this is the very foundation of Indian civilization. The Prime Minister emphasized that it is the collective responsibility of everyone to ensure that this sacred confluence flows smoothly.
The Prime Minister stated that his government is correcting the mistake made by previous governments in neglecting manuscripts. Referring to the current global situation, Mr. Modi said that the message of this museum is important for all of humanity. Prime Minister also inaugurated the Kaynes Semicon Plant at Sanand GIDC, Ahmedabad. This will mark the beginning of commercial production at the facility, with the manufacturing of advanced Intelligent Power Modules (IPMs), which represents a significant milestone in India's journey in the semiconductor industry. IPMs are critical components for automotive and industrial applications, requiring compact, efficient, and reliable power switching systems. Each module comprises 17 chips and will be supplied to California-based Alpha and Omega Semiconductor (AOS). When all phases of the plant are completed, it will have the capacity to produce 6.33 million units per day.
