Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav has said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, the country and Madhya Pradesh are moving forward with renewed energy. Under the Prime Minister's leadership, India is establishing a distinct identity on the global stage. Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that Madhya Pradesh is an agriculture-based state. While agriculture primarily refers to crop production, farming encompasses animal husbandry, fisheries and horticulture, which help improve farmers' economic well-being. The State Government is committed to the development of both agriculture and allied farming activities. Through river-linking projects and other initiatives, the government has accelerated the expansion of irrigation facilities to promote prosperity among farmers. The provision of 10 hours of daytime electricity supply to farmers has also been initiated. To enhance the income of farmers and livestock owners, the State Government has decided to promote milk production across Madhya Pradesh. Dairy cooperative societies are being formed in every Gram Panchayat for milk collection. The government is encouraging farmers to supplement their income through animal husbandry and milk production alongside crop cultivation. Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that Madhya Pradesh currently ranks third in the country in milk production. The state aims to become the number one state in milk production within the next two years.
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav was addressing journalists and media representatives at the Diwali Milan Samaroh held at the Chief Minister's Residence on Saturday. He extended Diwali and Govardhan Puja greetings and best wishes to all citizens of the state.
Additional Chief Secretary to the Chief Minister's Office Shri Neeraj Mandloi, Secretary, Transport Department and Commissioner, Public Relations, Shri Manish Singh, Additional Secretary to the Chief Minister and Director, Public Relations, Shri Arvind Dubey, and other officials were present on the occasion.
Permanent Property Rights for Rural Residents through Chief Minister Registry Scheme
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that under the 'Chief Minister Registry Scheme', the State Government is ensuring secure and permanent ownership rights over property for residents of rural areas. He said that, for the first time since Independence, farmers and rural residents have received registered documents establishing their ownership of their properties under this scheme. The Chief Minister recalled that during his visit to a village in Morena district on Dhanteras last Friday, he met beneficiaries of the Registry Scheme. The villagers became emotional as the process of securing legal ownership rights over their properties was completed for the first time.
PM Excellence Colleges Established in All 55 Districts
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that under the National Education Policy 2020, PM Excellence Colleges have been established in all 55 districts of the state. Quality education is being promoted through Sandipani Schools, while public transportation is being strengthened through the Chief Minister Sugam Parivahan Seva. He said that the number of medical colleges is being increased to ensure the availability of doctors. Medical colleges are also being constructed in Mandla and Balaghat, with admissions scheduled to begin from the current academic session.
Road and Rail Connectivity Being Expanded Across State
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that road and rail connectivity is being rapidly expanded across Madhya Pradesh. Rail connectivity has reached Dhar and Jhabua. Every district, division and even smaller towns of the state are being connected with industrial development. He said that following the inauguration of Shri Mahakal Mahalok, the economic landscape of Ujjain has undergone a significant transformation. The city is being developed on a larger scale under the Smart City Project. Similarly, the Omkareshwar Corridor is being developed at a cost of ₹2,500 crore, while Chitrakoot and the Ram Raja Sarkar Temple in Orchha are being transformed with an investment of ₹2,000 crore.
Development Must Reflect Spirit of Ram Rajya and Golden Era of Vikramaditya
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that the ideals of Ram Rajya under Lord Shri Ram, the era of Lord Shri Krishna and the golden age of Samrat Vikramaditya have been heard and celebrated through history. The true meaning of a golden era, he said, is that achievements should not remain confined to felicitations and celebrations but must be reflected positively in every sphere of society. The State Government is continuously advancing on the path of development with this objective.
