Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently inaugurated a series of development projects worth ₹17,500 crore in Madhya Pradesh. The unveiling of these projects, which took place via video conferencing, marks a significant step towards enhancing various sectors, including irrigation, power, road, rail, water supply, coal, and industry. The prime minister also introduced the ‘Cyber Tehsil’ project, which aims to modernize how government services are delivered in the state.
The ‘Cyber Tehsil’ project, covering all 55 districts of Madhya Pradesh, is designed to streamline government services by ensuring paperless, faceless, end-to-end online processing of mutation of sale-purchase and record correction in revenue records. This initiative is expected to enhance efficiency and transparency in governance.
During the inauguration ceremony, Prime Minister Modi expressed his condolences for the Dindori road mishap and assured all possible efforts for those injured in the accident. He also highlighted the ongoing redevelopment work on more than 30 railway stations in Madhya Pradesh, emphasizing the BJP-led government’s commitment to development.
PM Modi underscored the significance of the ‘double-engine government’ in accelerating development in the state, stating, “The schemes unveiled today will bring ease to the lives of people in Madhya Pradesh. More investment and employment opportunities will come to the state.” He also compared the irrigation efforts of the BJP-led Centre to those of the Congress-led UPA, noting that the land brought under irrigation had doubled during the BJP’s tenure.
The prime minister emphasized the BJP’s focus on agriculture, business, and tourism, stating, “What can be a bigger ‘seva’ than when water reaches the farms of the farmers?” He highlighted the ‘Sinchayee Yojana’ as a key differentiator between the BJP and Congress, noting the significant increase in land brought under irrigation during the BJP’s tenure.
PM Modi also outlined the BJP’s vision for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, stating, “For us, these elections are not just about forming our government for the third time. In our third tenure, we will make this country the third largest economy in the world.” He emphasized the importance of empowering women and daughters in the next five years.
The prime minister acknowledged the resolve of the people of Madhya Pradesh to develop the state, stating, “Lakhs of friends are connected in every Lok Sabha seat of MP with a resolution of ‘Viksit Madhya Pradesh’.” He also noted the efforts of other states to develop in a similar manner, emphasizing the importance of state-level development for the overall progress of India.
In addition to the inauguration of various development projects, PM Modi also unveiled the world’s first ‘Vikramaditya Vedic Clock’ in Ujjain. This clock, based on the Indian ‘panchang’ or time calculation system, is a testament to India’s rich cultural heritage and technological advancements.
The inauguration of these projects and the launch of the ‘Cyber Tehsil’ project are big steps for Madhya Pradesh. They will help improve governance, infrastructure, and the economy. The prime minister’s plans show that the BJP is serious about making India better for everyone.
