Life will change with modern techniques of agriculture and animal husbandry
Raipur, 30 April 2025: Keeping in view the establishment of peace and inclusive development in Naxal-affected areas, the state government has implemented the Chhattisgarh Naxalite Surrender Relief and Rehabilitation Policy 2025. Under this policy, continuous efforts are being made to make the surrendered youth self-reliant by providing vocational training to bring them into the mainstream of society. In Sukma district, under the guidance of Collector Devesh Kumar Dhruv, 20 surrendered youth are being trained at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Sukma through the Rural Self-Employment Training Institute (RSET). This training is of three months duration in which they are being informed about livelihood based techniques like drip irrigation, vermicompost production, organic farming, vegetable production, dairy, poultry and fisheries. In the training program, sessions are also being organized on financial literacy and methods of setting up small enterprises to promote entrepreneurship development. After completion of the training, these youth will also be given training in other employment-oriented subjects like sewing and motor driving.
Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai says that the Naxal Relief and Rehabilitation Policy 2025 of the Chhattisgarh Government is not limited to surrender only, but it is an effort to give new life to those youth who had once gone on the path of deviation. Our aim is that they become self-reliant, live a respectable life and become an inspiration for the society. Collector Devesh Kumar Dhruv said that this is not only rehabilitation, but a concrete step towards permanent livelihood for the youth who have returned to the mainstream. Nodal Officer of Livelihood College, Ms. Madhu Teta informed that after the training, these youth will also be provided necessary assistance from the government for self-employment. This initiative of the state government is not only establishing permanent peace in Naxal-affected areas, but is also leading the youth towards a positive future.
