Addressing a gathering in New Delhi on Friday night after the special screening of a documentary on Kutch, Modi said his state has managed to attract tourists from across the world thanks to a tourist friendly policy and infrastructure.
"While terrorism divides people, tourism works as a uniting force," he said. "In the 2001 earthquake, Kutch suffered heavy losses. But within eight years it stood up and is welcoming tourists again," he said.
Leader of the Opposition L K Advani, former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah and Civil Aviation Minister Praful Patel were also present during the screening of The Unveiling of Kutch.
