VARANASI, Sept. 20 -- Prime Minister Narendra Modi will virtually lay the foundation stone for two major projects -- Multi-Modal Logistics Park (Freight Village) and Ship Repairing Facility Centre -- here on Saturday. Both these projects will be developed by Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI) under the ministry of ports, shipping and waterways. The ceremony will take place at 10:30 am.
