MP CM Mohan Yadav assures financial help for tribal girl Anamika Baiga

Madhya Pradesh CM Mohan Yadav promises state support for tribal girl Anamika Baiga's medical studies after her public plea for financial assistance.

"Every possible assistance will be provided by the state government upon her admission to a medical college. - CM Mohan Yadav"

Bhopal/Sidhi, Jan 10 Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav has assured financial assistance to Anamika Baiga, a young tribal girl from Sidhi district, to help her pursue her dream of becoming a doctor.

The assurance came after the Chief Minister learned that Anamika, who is preparing for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), had sought financial support for her coaching and hostel expenses. She is yet to appear for the examination.

In a post on the social media platform X, Chief Minister Yadav said that Anamika had requested assistance for her studies. "After obtaining the necessary information, it was found that she is preparing for NEET and requires support for coaching and hostel fees. Instructions have been issued to make appropriate arrangements for the daughter. Every possible assistance will be provided by the state government upon her admission to a medical college," he wrote.

The Chief Minister also encouraged Anamika, expressing confidence in her success. "I am fully confident that Anamika will become a doctor and will bring glory to Madhya Pradesh," he said.

Earlier on Friday, Anamika had attempted to meet Chief Minister Yadav during a public programme in Sidhi district to convey her grievances but was stopped by police personnel. She was seen pleading with folded hands and in tears, requesting permission to meet the Chief Minister, but was not allowed.

Speaking to the media later, Anamika said she aspired to become a doctor but her parents, who work as daily-wage labourers, were unable to bear the expenses. She alleged that despite approaching the Sidhi district collector and local MLA Kunar Singh Tekam twice for help, her pleas were ignored, prompting her to seek an audience with the Chief Minister.

Notably, during his visit to the Sihawal Assembly constituency in Sidhi district on Friday, Chief Minister Yadav laid the foundation stone and inaugurated 209 development projects worth Rs 201.64 crore.

Good step, but why did she have to go through so much trauma? She was stopped by police and cried with folded hands. The local MLA and collector ignored her. The system failed her first. Help shouldn't depend on a viral moment or CM's visit.

As someone from MP, I'm proud of our CM for taking notice. Bahut accha hai! But let's see if the promise is actually fulfilled "upon her admission." The real test is the follow-through. Wishing Anamika all the best for NEET! You can do it! 💪

While the assistance is commendable, it highlights a systemic issue. Why are there not enough scholarships and support structures in place? Relying on political intervention for basic educational support is not a sustainable model for development.

This is the India we want to see. Empowering our tribal communities is crucial for national progress. Hope this inspires many more Anamikas to come forward and chase their ambitions. Jai Hind!

The article says he inaugurated projects worth 200+ crore. A small fraction of that could fund hundreds of Anamikas. Priorities seem right, but the distribution mechanism is broken at the ground level. The local administration needs to be more responsive.
