Original manifesto wording
“We will put Gujarat’s festivals on the international map by creating a round-the-year festival calendar: Modhera Dance Festival (January), Kite Festival (January), Dang Darbar (March-April), Madhavpur Ghed Fair (April), Saputara Monsoon Festival (July-August), Tarnetar Mela (August-September), Janmashtami Festival (September), Shamlaji Fair (November) and Navratri Festival (November).”

Our Assessment
Gujarat Tourism publishes a fairs-and-festivals calendar and dated 2026 programming, including Saputara's monsoon festival. This verifies an operating promotional calendar, much of it built on longstanding events. The broader international reach and consistent delivery of the full named schedule are not independently reconciled. The manifesto's month labels are preserved as source text; actual festival dates vary with the calendar.
