We have fulfilled the promises made to every section of society, as guaranteed by Modi Ji: CM Sai
Raipur, January 5
Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has taken a big initiative to bring light of development into the lives of the specially backward tribes through the PM Janman Yojana. Through the PM Janman Yojana, the specially backward tribes are becoming part of the mainstream. Gariaband is a district rich in vast forest areas and natural beauty. A large number of specially backward tribes live here, for whose development the government is committed. Our government is fulfilling every promise guaranteed by Modi.
Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai said this while addressing a public meeting held at the police parade ground in Gariaband district.
On this occasion, Chief Minister Sai inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for 193 works worth Rs 338 crore. This includes the inauguration of 44 works worth Rs 119 crore and the groundbreaking of 149 works worth Rs 219 crore. On this occasion, he announced the construction of a bridge over the Belat Nala for the convenience of the people of 36 villages in the remote forest area of Devbhog-Jhakharpara of the district.
In the program, he handed over agricultural pumps, fishing nets, and other materials worth Rs 1.27 crore to 99 beneficiaries in various beneficiary-oriented schemes and appointment letters to eligible people in Anganwadi worker and compassionate appointment cases.
Addressing the program, Chief Minister Sai said that under the PM Janman Yojana, more than 2528 houses have been approved for our Kamar tribe people in Gariaband. Under this scheme, 49 roads are being constructed at a cost of Rs 58 crore in Gariaband district alone. With the completion of the roads, the settlements of the Kamar tribe will now be connected to the mainstream, and the children of the Kamar tribe will now be able to easily pursue higher education. Ambulances will be able to easily reach the Kamar settlements when needed.
Chief Minister Sai said that when we started organizing the Kumbh Mela in Rajim, saints from all over the country came to this confluence of three rivers. The fame of Rajim increased. Unfortunately, the previous government had reduced its dignity. Our government has started it again in the same grand form. Next month, the Rajim Kumbh will be organized again. This time too, we will organize this beautiful ceremony with full grandeur. There will be a congregation of saints in Rajim and we will all benefit from this satsang.
Chief Minister Sai said that the survey work of the Sikasar Kodar link project is progressing rapidly. Thousands of farmers in Gariaband district will benefit once the 112 km underground canal lining work is completed. Dialysis centers have been started at the district headquarters and Devbhog for kidney patients in Supebeda. Instructions have been given to the health department to find a permanent solution to this problem.
Chief Minister Sai praised the innovative work of the district administration and said that Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji started a campaign to plant a tree in the name of a mother. In this, the mothers and sisters of Gariaband planted more than 87,000 saplings in a single day, setting a world record in the Limca Book of Records.
He congratulated all the mothers and sisters for this. He said that a ‘Gaurav Gariaband’ campaign is being run to get good results in the 10th and 12th board exams. Students are also being taught through digital classrooms and studios, which is a good initiative.
The program was also addressed by the district in-charge minister and Food Minister Shri Dayaldas Baghel, Lok Sabha member of Mahasamund district Smt. Rupkumari Chaudhary, and Rajim MLA Shri Rohit Sahu. On this occasion, public representatives and a large number of villagers were present.
