ईमानदारी से, जब-जब नेता मिलते हैं, मुझे लगता है कि चुनावी वादों की बातें हो रही हैं, लेकिन विकास की परियोजनाएं अक्सर कागजों में अटक जाती हैं। हाँ, ट्यूबवेल और सबस्टेशन जैसे छोटे प्रोजेक्ट अच्छे हैं, लेकिन हमें जमीन पर नतीजे चाहिए, सिर्फ घोषणाएं नहीं।

बहुत खुशी हुई कि दो राज्यों के मुख्यमंत्री आपसी हितों पर चर्चा कर रहे हैं। उत्तराखंड और मध्य प्रदेश दोनों ही पर्यटन और धार्मिक स्थलों से समृद्ध हैं। चार धाम यात्रा के लिए निमंत्रण बहुत सार्थक है। उम्मीद है कि दोनों राज्यों के बीच सहयोग बढ़ेगा और पर्यटकों को सुविधाएं मिलेंगी। 🌄

Sad to see that while the CM is busy meeting other leaders, basic issues like potholes and water shortage in remote villages remain unresolved. Rs 63.62 lakh for one tube well in Nainital seems too little for a state that gets so much central funding. Good intentions, but execution needs to improve. 😕
