Noting that public service was equal to service to the people, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said Service is that in which there is no sense of self and it gives direction to one's spiritual journey and strengthens it over time.
Addressing the Karyakar Suvarna Mahotsav in Ahmedabad via video conferencing, Modi said when this service was done in an organised form with lakhs of workers as an institution, then amazing results were achieved.
He noted that such kind of institutional service had the potential to solve the major problems and eradicate many evils of the society and the country. Modi further said when lakhs of workers were connected with a common purpose, it would transform as a great strength of the country and society.
