CM Mohan Yadav calls on PM Modi, briefs welfare schemes, investment in MP
New Delhi, March 16
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the Prime Minister's Office on Monday to discuss a roadmap for accelerating infrastructure, investment, and social welfare in the state.
During the interaction, Yadav briefed the Prime Minister on several ongoing and proposed projects aimed at boosting economic growth and improving infrastructure across the state.
"I met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi today and sought his guidance. On this occasion, I apprised the Prime Minister of the various programmes and activities being undertaken in the state under the 'Farmer Welfare Year' initiative, as well as the overall progress of the state," Yadav said.
He said that the state government is working actively for the four priority groups identified by the Prime Minister: farmers, women, the poor, and the youth.
Yadav provided a comprehensive briefing on the 'Farmer Welfare Year' initiative, a flagship program of his administration.
"We are observing the 'Farmer Welfare Year' with great enthusiasm and effectiveness. We are doing excellent work by integrating the efforts of around 16 departments, including animal husbandry, fisheries, horticulture, and agriculture. I am delighted that the Prime Minister has bestowed his blessings on our efforts to move forward, and I am confident that the results of these endeavours will be positive in the future," the CM said.
The discussion also highlighted the importance of close coordination between the central and state governments for the effective implementation of flagship schemes and development initiatives.
Both leaders emphasised the need to ensure that welfare programmes reach citizens efficiently, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas.
The meeting is seen as part of the Madhya Pradesh government's efforts to align its development agenda with national priorities while speeding up projects that contribute to economic growth and social welfare.
The Chief Minister also thanked the Centre for its continued support for development projects and policy initiatives in the state.
"Prime Minister Modi has bestowed his blessings on our efforts to move forward, and the results of these endeavours will be seen," Yadav said while interacting with the media at the Parliament complex.
The CM also met Om Birla, Speaker of the Lok Sabha, at Parliament and shared a photograph of the meeting on his social media accounts.

Coordination between state and centre is crucial for development. MP has great potential in agriculture and industry. Focusing on farmers, women, and youth is the right approach. Let's hope for tangible outcomes soon!
Another meeting, another photo op. We hear about 'roadmaps' and 'flagship programs' every time. I'll believe it when I see better roads in my district and timely MSP for crops. Actions speak louder than briefings.
As someone who has visited MP, the infrastructure in cities like Indore is impressive. If this coordination can extend that development to rural areas, it would be a massive win for inclusive growth. The focus on fisheries and horticulture is smart.
Blessings and guidance are good, but we need clear timelines and accountability. Which projects are being accelerated? What's the investment target? The article is full of generalities. The youth need jobs, not just mentions in priority groups.
Positive step! When state and centre work together, schemes reach people faster. The Farmer Welfare Year, if implemented well with proper funds, can really change lives in MP's heartland. Hope they also focus on women's self-help groups and digital literacy. 🙏
