Naxal-free MP is a huge achievement for the safety and development of the state. Kudos to the government for this. However, the meeting's timing is interesting, right after the Indore tragedy. The focus should also be on fixing the basic water infrastructure.
Rs 8 lakh crore investment? That's massive if true. Need more transparency on which companies are investing and where these jobs will be created. Hope it's not just another headline number.
As someone who has visited MP, the development in cities like Bhopal and Indore is visible. But the recent water crisis shows how fragile that progress can be. Meetings in Delhi are good, but ground-level governance is what matters most.
'Kisan Kalyan Varsh' sounds like a good initiative. Farmers in MP have been through a lot. Hope this plan has concrete steps for better MSP, irrigation, and crop insurance. Jai Kisan! 🚜
It's positive to see state and central leadership aligning on development goals. The power plant expansion is crucial for energy security. However, the article's last paragraph is a stark reminder that public health cannot be an afterthought.
