Farmers Pending Bonuses, PSC Exam Malpractice: PM Modi Slams Previous Cong Govt In Chhattisgarh
PM Modi praised the people of the state for the BJP's win in the recently held Chhattisgarh assembly election.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday inaugurated and laid the groundwork for several development projects worth Rs 34,400 crore in Chhattisgarh under the 'Viksit Bharat, Viksit Chhattisgarh' initiative, news agency ANI reported. The projects cater to various vital sectors including roads, railways, coal, power, and solar energy, among others. Addressing the gathering, PM Modi praised the progress made in Chhattisgarh, stating that the ambition of establishing a Viksit Chhattisgarh will be realised through the empowerment of farmers, youth, and Nari Shakti.
"Today, we are moving ahead with the resolve of 'Viksit Chhattisgarh'! The BJP has made it, and only BJP will improvise it!," PM Modi stated.
"Chhattisgarh has hardworking farmers, talented youth and a wealth of nature. Whatever is needed to develop, Chhattisgarh had it earlier and is there even today. But those who ruled the country for a long time after independence did not have a big vision," he said.
Slamming previous Congress government, PM Modi stated: "Lakhs of farmers of Chhattisgarh have been given the bonus that was pending for two years. The previous Congress Government was stopping us from building houses for the poor. They were creating obstacles. We are rapidly taking the 'Har Ghar Jal' scheme forward. Orders to inquire about the malpractice in the PSC exams have also been given. I congratulate the women of Chhattisgarh for the 'Mahtari Vandana' scheme."
