In Varanasi, he will launch solar-powered boats for plying on river Ganga.


Also, PM Modi would be distributing 11 solar-powered 'e-boats' at the Assi Ghat.


"Particularly excited to launch a scheme for environmentally friendly e-boats at Assi Ghat. These will help bring down pollution. The e-boats will also bring down operational costs thus ensuring higher incomes for those who earn their livelihoods through such boats," he said in a series of tweets.




Later, the Prime Minister will also distribute 1,000 e-rickshaws and also hold a chaupal with rickshawpullers. 



Before launching the e-boats, he will meet 100 prominent people from the district to discuss about the development of Varanasi.
