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.

At Jaipur’s Pravasi Rajasthani Diwas, Punjab Governor and senior Rajasthan leader Gulab Chand Kataria delivered an emotional address. He said that although Piyush Goyal made him a “Pravasi” by sending him to Punjab, his heart still lives in Rajasthan. Kataria wished that his final days be spent in his home state.

He urged overseas Rajasthanis to repay their “birthland debt” by contributing to the state’s development. Highlighting improved infrastructure, he said Rajasthan now has strong road, rail, airport connectivity, reliable electricity, water supply, better education, and an available workforce for investors.

Kataria praised Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma for beginning work on MoUs worth ₹8 lakh crore. He also lauded Vedanta chairman Anil Agarwal for championing Rajasthan’s interests and appreciated Union Minister Bhupender Yadav for speeding up environmental clearances. Kataria added that new gold findings in Banswara will boost the region’s future prosperity.
