'Kashi and Ganga belong to all. The invaders attacked this city, tried to destroy it. The history of Aurangzeb's atrocities, his terror tried to change civilization by the sword. But the soil of this country is different from the rest of the world. If Aurangzeb comes here, Shivaji stands up. If any Salar Masood moves here, then brave warriors like King Suheldev make him realise the power of our unity," he said.

He said that when the temple was attacked, Ahilyabai Holkar helped in its reconstruction.

The Prime Minister said that earlier the temple area was only 3,000 square feet, it has now become about 5 lakh square feet.

The Prime Minister asked people to make three promises to him. He said that people must promise cleanliness, innovation and self-reliance.

"India is moving towards a new tomorrow but we need to work harder on cleanliness. We also need to stress on innovation. Startups are changing the face of the country and we need to carry it forward. We also have to emphasise on 'Atmanirbhar' which is essential to make the country strong," he said.
