At the first Pravasi Rajasthani Diwas in Jaipur, Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma urged overseas Rajasthanis to strengthen their emotional and cultural connection with their homeland. Addressing over 5,000 representatives from 20 countries at JECC Sitapura, he said Rajasthan offers unmatched heritage, deserts, lakes, palaces, sanctuaries, and Shekhawati havelis—so rich that “a visitor can watch four to five films on one ticket.”
Sharma announced the official implementation of the Pravasi Rajasthani Policy, aimed at giving global Rajasthanis recognition, support, easy investment pathways, and a clear roadmap to participate in the state’s development. He highlighted the formation of the dedicated Department of Pravasi Rajasthani Affairs, fulfilling last year’s promise.
Appealing to the diaspora, the CM said every family should visit Rajasthan at least twice a year to keep future generations connected to their roots. “When heritage stays alive, the future becomes stronger,” he added.
