From promise made during video interaction to school visit: emotional exchange between Shamya and Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel

Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel fulfills his promise to a Class 1 student, Shamya, by visiting her school in Banaskantha, creating an emotional moment.

"When I come there, I will definitely come to meet you. - Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel"

Banaskantha, February 7

Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel has time and again demonstrated his elder-like affection and human sensitivity. One such deeply emotional moment was witnessed at the PM SHRI Uttampura Anupam Primary School in Banaskantha district.

During a School Management Committee video interaction held last year, young Shamya Prajapati, a Class 1 student, innocently asked the Chief Minister:

"Grandfather, when will you visit our school?"

Touched by this simple question, Chief Minister Shri Bhupendrabhai Patel responded warmly and affectionately: "When I come there, I will definitely come to meet you."

Honouring Shamya's emotion and fulfilling the promise he had made earlier, the Chief Minister today personally visited the PM SHRI Uttampura (Dangiya) Anupam Primary School. He interacted warmly with the students and gathered information about their studies, the school campus, and the education system.

Expressing her feelings on the occasion, Shamya said: "I had asked Grandfather if he would come to meet us, he remembered his words and today fulfilled my dream and my school's dream."

Shamya recited shlokas before the Chief Minister, and in response, he blessed her with these words: "Study well, grow up, become a Collector, and then come and meet me."

With strong determination, Shamya promised the Chief Minister, "When I grow up, I will definitely come to meet you."

The Chief Minister's simplicity and human sensitivity filled the entire school family and School Management Committee members across the state with joy and emotion.

On this emotional occasion, Forest and Environment Minister Pravinbhai Mali, school teachers, students, and local leaders were present.

A positive gesture, no doubt. But let's be real, this is also good PR. I hope this visit translates into actual improvements for that school and others in Banaskantha. The real test is whether the infrastructure and teacher quality improve after the cameras leave.

Beautiful moment! "Study well, grow up, become a Collector" – what an inspiring thing to say to a young girl. This is how you build dreams and encourage the next generation. Kudos to the CM for remembering his promise. More power to Shamya!

As someone who works in education, these symbolic visits are nice, but the focus should be on systemic issues. Are the mid-day meals adequate? Do they have proper toilets? I appreciate the emotional exchange, but let's not forget the everyday struggles of government schools.

This is the India we love to see. Respect for elders, innocence of a child, and a leader who acts like a true "grandfather" figure. Shamya reciting shlokas is the cherry on top. Our culture's values shining through. 🙏

Good move by CM Patel. It sets a great example for all public servants. A promise is a promise, no matter who it's made to. Hope this inspires more direct interaction between our leaders and the common people, especially in villages.
