Speaking as the chief guest at a &#8216;Yuva Manch&#8217; programme organised at a private hotel in Mahoba Bazar, Raipur, the Chief Minister felicitated distinguished individuals for their outstanding contributions across various sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Addressing the gathering, Chief Minister Sai said Naxalism had long posed a major hurdle to the state&#8217;s growth. Under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the firm resolve of Union Home Minister Amit Shah, a clear timeline was set, and security forces displayed immense courage to make Chhattisgarh Naxal-free, he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Highlighting key socio-economic milestones, the Chief Minister pointed to global tourism recognition, including Dhudmaras village being named among the world&#8217;s best tourism villages by the UN World Tourism Organization. To further attract investment, tourism has now been included in the state&#8217;s new industrial policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reaffirming zero tolerance for corruption in governance, the Chief Minister stated that strict action was taken against those involved in past PSC recruitment scams, restoring transparency and trust among youth and parents. On tribal welfare and education, he noted that 6,000 villages are being covered under the Dharti Aba Janjatiya Gram Utkarsh Abhiyan, while an Education City and a planned Tribal University are taking shape in Bastar following the restoration of peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Healthcare and industrial infrastructure are also seeing significant expansion across the state. With 15 operational medical colleges and five new ones adding 250 seats this year, advanced treatments like brain tumour surgeries are now available at the Super Speciality Hospital in Bastar. Additionally, under the new Industrial Policy, MoUs worth \u20b98 lakh crore have been signed in sectors including semiconductors, AI data centres, and textiles, backed by special incentives for entrepreneurs generating employment for at least 1,000 local youths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rajya Sabha MP Kartikeya Sharma and prominent citizens were present on the occasion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Raipur, Aug 08: Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai on Saturday stated that the state is advancing rapidly on an integrated path of progress following the complete eradication of Naxalism, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3383","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chhattisgarh","category-display","has_no_thumb"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3383","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3383"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3383\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3384,"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3383\/revisions\/3384"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3383"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3383"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsaxis.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3383"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
