Grand preparations in Daman ahead of PM Modi's visit, to inaugurate NaMO hospital and NaMo airport
Daman, June 4
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to visit Daman on Friday, where he will inaugurate the new terminal building of NAMO Airport and also dedicate the NAMO hospital to the nation.
An atmosphere of excitement and joy has gripped the Union Territory, even as the district administration gives final touches to the elaborate preparations for the Prime Minister's visit tomorrow. Strict measures have been put in place, with the police department stepping up security and vigilance around the College Ground, the venue for the Prime Minister's public rally.
The two big-ticket projects, including 'Namo Hospital' and 'Namo Airport,' are expected to usher in a "new era" in the region's healthcare and transportation sectors. Also, the laying of foundation stones for significant projects, such as the iconic bridge and the convention center, is expected to provide fresh momentum for tourism and economic growth in the future.
The Union Territory has been decked out to give a grand welcome to PM Modi, and the local population is also curious and excited to get a first-hand glimpse of the Prime Minister.
BJP leader Aspi Damania informed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting Daman for the eighth time.
"An atmosphere of enthusiasm currently prevails in the region ahead of PM Modi's visit. The Prime Minister will also conduct a roadshow. I urge the people to come out during this event and express their gratitude to the Prime Minister," he stated.
Notably, PM Modi is visiting this Union Territory for the eighth consecutive time and is set to present the region's residents with several new developmental projects.
During this visit, he will dedicate himself to the nation and lay the foundation stones for 56 development projects, costing approximately ₹2,970 crore.
Among these projects, the two mega projects that will get the spotlight include the New Terminal Building at NAMO Airport, which will significantly enhance regional air connectivity and facilitate economic growth in the region.
NAMO Hospital is another crucial project that will cater to nearly 1,500 OPD patients per day and will strengthen access to quality healthcare services for the people.

Impressive that PM Modi is visiting for the eighth time. Shows real commitment to smaller regions. But I hope this isn't just about photo ops—Daman needs sustained investment, not just one-day events.
Naming the hospital and airport after 'NaMo' feels a bit too much. Why not keep it neutral, like 'Daman International Airport'? Still, happy about the actual projects—1,500 OPD patients per day will really help locals.
Bhai, ₹2,970 crore for 56 projects? That's massive! If even half of these actually get completed on time, Daman will transform into a mini-Gujarat. Hope the roadshow goes smoothly—security tight honi chahiye. 🚀
I'm genuinely curious: will the NaMO hospital have modern equipment and trained staff, or will it face the usual Indian public hospital issues? Infrastructure is great, but maintenance matters more in the long run.
Ek baar PM aate hain toh sab kuch chamak jata hai—roads, lights, banners. But will these projects actually benefit the common Damanwala? I hope the bridge and convention center don't become white elephants. Still, cautiously optimistic! 😊
