Raipur 29 May 2025: Chief Minister Vishnudev Sai attended the civic felicitation ceremony organized under the National Executive Council meeting of Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad held at Krishi Mandapam Auditorium of Indira Gandhi Agricultural University in the capital Raipur. Addressing the program, Chief Minister Sai said that youth power is national power. Our country has the highest number of youth in the world. The role of youth will be very important in making India a developed nation by 2047. The Chief Minister said that Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad is the largest student organization in the world. It is a matter of great happiness that this three-day national council meeting is being organized on the land of Chhattisgarh. Life is incomplete without education. Education is the basic mantra of development. Today all the top institutions of education are established in Chhattisgarh. Today the youth in our state are studying in national institutions like IIT, AIIMS, Triple IT, National Law University. New education policy is in force in Chhattisgarh. Under the new education policy, we are also connecting the youth with employment. In Chhattisgarh, an institution like Prayas is working to educate school children. A large number of children studying in Prayas are getting success in competitive examinations.
Chief Minister Sai said that for such youth who want to prepare for civil services etc. examinations, Tribal Youth Hostel is established in New Delhi. We have increased the capacity of this Tribal Youth Hostel to 200 seats. We are building Nalanda campus across the state where children can study in a peaceful environment. We have taken the initiative here that students can also study medicine in Hindi language. In the state, primary level children are being taught in their mother tongue Gondi, Halbi etc.
The Chief Minister said that the new industrial policy of Chhattisgarh is being appreciated all over the country. Under the new industrial policy, we are not only bringing investment in the state but also providing employment to a large number of youth. The work of semiconductor chip manufacturing and AI data center has started in Chhattisgarh. There will be a huge possibility of employment for youth in these areas as well. Our government has handed over the investigation of corruption in PSC to the CBI. It is our top priority that the future of the youth should not be tampered with.
The Chief Minister said that during Sushasan Tihar, we are taking feedback from the public about the work done by the government in the last one and a half years. The third phase of Sushasan Tihar is going on, under which we are touring the entire state. The applications received in the first phase were resolved by our officers in the second phase. Now in the third phase, we are going to the public. In one and a half years, we have fulfilled most of the guarantees of Prime Minister Modi. We have fulfilled the promise of giving Pradhan Mantri Awas to the people. 70 lakh mothers and sisters are getting Mahtari Vandan amount. During Sushasan Tihar, a woman in Narayanpur told me very happily that she has bought a sewing machine from the Mahtari Vandan amount. Through which she is earning 4 to 5 thousand. Similarly, a sister told that she is running a grocery shop with this amount and earning an income of two to three thousand rupees. Chhattisgarh is the first state in the country where the Good Governance and Convergence Department has been started. All the work of the government is being done with transparency. We are now moving towards digitization. Files are now online through e-files. We are closing all the doors of corruption. On this occasion, Agriculture Minister Ramvichar Netam, Health Minister Shyam Bihari Jaiswal, MLA Kiran Dev, MLA Motilal Sahu and other dignitaries were present.
