Rajasthan CM reviews preparations for PM Modi's Ajmer visit on Feb 28

Rajasthan CM Bhajan Lal Sharma reviews prep for PM Modi's Feb 28 Ajmer visit to launch projects worth ₹23,500 crore and distribute appointment letters.

"The Prime Minister's visit would mark a significant step towards strengthening development initiatives in the state. - CM Bhajan Lal Sharma"

Jaipur, Feb 18

Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma on Wednesday reviewed preparations for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's scheduled visit to Ajmer on February 28, during which development projects worth Rs 23,500 crore are proposed to be inaugurated and foundation stones laid.

The Chief Minister said the Prime Minister's visit would mark a significant step towards strengthening development initiatives in the state. He also noted that appointment letters would be distributed to youth during the programme.

CM Sharma chaired a review meeting with senior officials at the Chief Minister's Office and directed them to complete all arrangements for the event at Kayad Rest House within the stipulated timeline. He emphasised the need for coordination among all departments to ensure smooth conduct of the programme.

The Chief Minister reviewed preparations related to venue infrastructure, seating arrangements, drinking water facilities, parking, medical services, sanitation, traffic management and security. He instructed officials to discharge their responsibilities with diligence and ensure that all arrangements are completed on time.

He also sought details regarding the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) programme and beneficiaries linked to the event and issued necessary directions to concerned officials.

CM Sharma said all departments, along with the Ajmer district administration, should work in coordination to ensure proper execution of arrangements for the Prime Minister's visit.

Chief Secretary V. Srinivas, Director General of Police Rajiv Kumar Sharma, senior officials from the Chief Minister's Office, representatives of concerned departments and Ajmer district administration officials attended the meeting.

Earlier on Wednesday, CM Sharma said that 72 per cent of the promises made in the BJP's election manifesto have been fulfilled within two years of the government assuming office.

The Chief Minister made the remarks while interacting with officials and party workers from Kota, Ajmer and Bharatpur divisions at his residence. He said BJP workers remain committed to public service and nation-building and continue to enjoy the trust of the people.

CM Sharma called upon party workers to actively publicise public welfare schemes and budgetary provisions of both the Central and state governments and ensure that their benefits reach people at the grassroots level.

He said the state budget has made adequate provisions for development works in all 200 Assembly constituencies and claimed that the government has focused on ensuring benefits across sectors and sections of society.

The Chief Minister alleged that the previous Congress government had discriminated in budget allocations, while the present government has ensured equitable distribution of resources.

Highlighting key initiatives, Sharma said the government is prioritising water security through projects such as the Ram Jal Setu Link Project, Dewas Project, Yamuna Water Agreement, Ganga Canal repairs and the Som-Kamala-Amba Canal project.

Distribution of appointment letters to youth is the best part! After so much struggle for jobs, this is a positive step. Hope it's done transparently and reaches deserving candidates, not just politically connected ones.

While inaugurations are good, what about the completion of ongoing projects? We often see foundation stones laid but work stalls later. Hope this time there is proper follow-up. The CM's claim of 72% manifesto promises fulfilled needs more public verification.

The logistical planning sounds thorough - traffic, water, medical, security. As someone who has attended large political rallies in India, I know how chaotic they can get. Hope the common people attending face minimal inconvenience.

Development projects are welcome, but the political blame game continues. Every new government says the previous one discriminated. Instead of allegations, just show us the work on ground. Action speaks louder than words.

Ajmer is a holy city for many. Hope the visit brings not just political announcements but also some focus on preserving its cultural heritage and improving facilities for the thousands of pilgrims who visit the dargah every year.
