Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah will visit Gujarat on May 28 and take part in public functions in different parts of the state, the government said.

Gujarat minister and the state government's spokesperson Jitu Vaghani informed reporters about the visit in Gandhinagar on Wednesday.

Notably, the Bharatiya Janata Party-ruled state would be facing assembly elections by the end of this year.

On May 28, Modi will inaugurate a multispeciality hospital built by the Shree Patel Sewa Samaj at Atkot village in Jasdan tehsil of Rajkot district at 10:00 am, as per the official programme.

The 200-bed KD Parwadia Multispeciality Hospital, located on Rajkot-Bhavnagar Highway, has been built at a cost of Rs 40 crore, said its managing trustee Dr Bharat Boghara.

"We will provide free treatment to those having Ayushman Bharat and other cards issued by the government," said Boghara, who is also vice president of the Gujarat BJP.

The prime minister would also address a rally on this occasion, he said. In the evening, Modi would attend Sahkar Sammelan in Gandhinagar and address nearly 10,000 elected representatives of various cooperative bodies, said Vaghani.

On May 28, Shah would visit the Dwarkadheesh temple at Dwarka in the morning and then meet trainees at the Coastal Police Academy near Dwarka town, he said.

The Union home minister would later attend the Sahakar Sammelan in Gandhinagar, Vaghani added. -- PTI
