New Delhi: Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi on Friday had a new year's gift for the underprivileged girls of the state.

All gifts received by the Chief Minister through the year have been deposited with the state treasury and will be auctioned soon. The money collected from the auction will be used for education of these girls.

Modi also announced the setting up of an unique Gram Sachivalaya, a local set-up which will address issues at the village level, in the state. He claimed that Gujarat was the first state to set up such a body.

The Chief Minister also said that five Gram Mitras (village friends) will also be appointed to assist the sarpanches in problems like education, health, drinking water and others.
