BJP will siege veteran Congress leaders in Madhya Pradesh assembly elections
MMNN:6 May 2023
Bhopal :
Both BJP and Congress parties are busy preparing for Madhya Pradesh Assembly Elections 2023. Where the Congress is giving the message of being strong by breaking the strong leaders of the BJP. At the same time, the BJP is preparing a strategy to tie the veteran leaders of the Congress to their homes. The party has chalked out a strategy to siege leaders like Congress stalwarts Dr. Govind Singh, Ajay Singh, Jitu Patwari, Sajjan Singh Verma, Jaivardhan Singh, Priyavrat Singh, Laxman Singh, Umang Singhar, Tarun Bhanot, Bala Bachchan, Sachin Yadav. BJP will also field a strong candidate against them and with aggressive campaigning will weaken the leaders around them by bringing them into the BJP.
The Congress is pulling strings on those strong BJP leaders, whose traditional constituencies have been captured by the new BJP. Such leaders include former ministers like Deepak Joshi. Joshi is soon going to join the Congress.
By including such leaders in their party, the Congress wants to send a message that the BJP is now weakening. In the state also, due to this, the atmosphere towards BJP gets spoiled.
The BJP is also preparing such a strategy that all the bigoted leaders of the Congress should be besieged in such a way that they cannot come out of their constituency in the elections. The BJP has fielded its team in the field of these veteran leaders. Efforts have been started to bring the petty leaders there into the BJP. The BJP is trying to bring everyone along with it, be it panch-sarpanch, councilor or district-district panchayat leader.
Leader of Opposition in the Vidhan Sabha Dr. Govind Singh asked them to take care of themselves when Congress leaders of BJP were tied up at home and made to join the party. None of our leaders will budge from the toss. BJP's boat is about to sink. Party leaders have been under siege for a long time. The public will give a befitting reply to the BJP in this election.

Former Minister Deepak Joshi will join Congress on May 6 Claims of Dewas City Congress President –Invited to walk with Bhopal
MMNN:4 May 2023
Bhopal :
There is talk of former CM Kailash Joshi's son and former minister Deepak Joshi leaving the BJP and joining the Congress. Dewas City Congress President Manoj Rajani has also confirmed his joining the Congress. Rajani says that Joshi's family is a decent family and they have always raised their voice against corruption. He also raised his voice for the corruption done by the BJP leaders, but Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan did not pay heed to it.
Rajani said, Deepak will go with me and join the Congress party in Bhopal. Due to this, the Congress party will get four moons. Our Congress party will become stronger. Deepak Joshi is taking Congress membership as a revolution. These revolutions will not stop, the flame will come out like a torch.
Manoj Rajani said that it is true that Deepak Joshi is joining the Congress on the 6th. If Deepak joins the Congress holding the flag of the legacy of the Joshi family, which was started by Kailash Joshi ji, the embodiment of truth, I welcome him on behalf of the Congress family.
It is just the beginning, there are many leaders in Madhya Pradesh who are in touch with our big leaders. Talking about Dewas district, it is just the beginning. Deepak Joshi's supporters and other comrades who have been neglected for many years. The Congress family will also welcome him. I have received the invitation for the 6th. I will go to Bhopal with Deepak Joshi.
Rajani said that Deepak Joshi never talks in terms of blackmailing the party. Now they are such workers to whom they go to narrate their grievances. You are seeing in front of their eyes, what is their condition. Kamal Nath had allotted the land for the memorial in Hatpipalya in three minutes. Kailash Joshi ji is no more with us. Even after three years, the memorial could not be built by the BJP.
Kailash Joshi has become so neglected in BJP. The person who contributed to the formation of the Jana Sangh. The people who do all the wrong business have come under the control of the BJP. In such a situation, many faces like Deepak Joshi are neglected.
Former minister Deepak, who is going to join the Congress, had clearly said that why would I take a U-turn. I'm not a turn taker. I have left the house and will reach the door of the Congress. I am also leaving my father's traditional house. Now I will stay at brother-in-law's place. Will go to Congress office with father's photo. It is being told that Deepak Joshi's brother lives in the house of former Chief Minister Kailash Joshi in Bhopal. Although Deepak Joshi has removed his belongings from there.
Narottam seeks reply from Kamal Nath on Congress's announcement to ban Bajrang Dal in Karnataka
MMNN:3 May 2023
Bhopal :
During the Karnataka assembly elections, politics has been heated all over the country regarding banning the Bajrang Dal along with the banned Islamic organization PFI in its election manifesto by the Congress. The BJP has been a constant attacker of the Congress's promise to ban the Bajrang Dal, linking it to 'Bajrangbali'. Now the home minister of the state Narottam Mishra has surrounded the Congress as well as Kamal Nath on this issue and has demanded him to prove his devotion to Hanuman. Narottam Mishra has also written a letter to Kamal Nath in this context, in which he has asked whether Kamal Nath agrees with banning Bajrang Dal. Clarify the situation regarding what he himself thinks about the demand for ban on Bajrang Dal.
Narottam wrote in the letter - 'Kamal Nath ji, I have seen many videos and pictures of you, in which your devotion to Lord Bajrangbali is displayed. Your devotion to Bajrangbali has been seen and heard from time to time through the medium of media. Thus, there is no Bajrang devotee who is not hurt by the announcement of the ban on the Bajrang Dal by the Congress in Karnataka. Digvijaya Singh, a veteran leader of your party, also agrees with this point of the Karnataka manifesto and he is repeating the ban imposed on the Bajrang Dal during his tenure as Chief Minister in the East. In this case, I request you to make it clear from your response on this matter whether you are in favor of this decision or against it.

Narottam, agitated by the controversial statement of Mallikarjun Kharge on PM Modi, said – Congress's mentality is poisonous Digvijay Singh also tightened
MMNN:28 April 2023
Bhopal :
The political uproar that erupted after Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge in his speech at an election rally in Karnataka described Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a poisonous snake is not taking its name. Even though Kharge has expressed regret for his statement later, giving clarification, but BJP leaders are continuously attacking him. State Home Minister Dr. Narottam Mishra retorted on this statement of Kharge and said that in reality the mentality, culture and ideology of Congress is poisonous. Taunting Kharge, he said that I am surprised from where he gets so much poison in his words. Does he go to 10 Janpath to recharge? When Gujarat elections were held, he spoke there. When elections were held here, they spoke here. Narottam Mishra further said that in fact the mentality of Congress is poisonous and their culture is also poisonous. Rahul Gandhi was punished just for speaking. Charges were framed against Digvijay Singh only for speaking. These are people without mass base and keep giving such statements to stay in discussions. The ideology of Congress itself is becoming poisonous. It does not suit him to speak such poisonous things for Prime Minister Modi, the father of Amrit Mahotsav and Good Governance. Modiji has raised the prestige of India in the world. Today the whole of India and the world takes pride in the name of Modiji.

In a democracy, there is governance of the people, for the people and by the people. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that the theme of Civil Services Day 2023 is ‘Developed India, Empowering Citizens and Reaching the Last Mile’. Congratulating Team Madhya Pradesh, he said that he is proud that together they have made a very important contribution in making Madhya Pradesh prosperous and developed. Team Madhya Pradesh has worked unitedly. Rapid positive changes have taken place in Madhya Pradesh. We have surprisingly increased the capacity of irrigation from 7.5 lakh hectare to 45 lakh hectare. Crossing this, we will now work to increase it up to 65 lakh hectares. Today 4 lakh kilometers of roads have been built in the state. At some point of time it used to be only 71 thousand kms and was in poor condition. Now there are excellent roads in the state.
Amazing work has been done in various fields including energy in the state. We are able to work as the state now has good resources. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that the construction department should also remain active in the state. Today Madhya Pradesh is counted among the developed state, Madhya Pradesh is no more a bimaru state. The credit for this goes to the extraordinary hard work of Team Madhya Pradesh.

Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that talking of infrastructure in the state, a lot of positive changes have taken place. Agricultural production has increased manifold. The grain stores are full. Per capita income has increased. The contribution of Madhya Pradesh in the country’s GSDP has increased.

It is an exceptional achievement. Madhya Pradesh has taken a comparatively higher jump, the credit of which goes to Team Madhya Pradesh.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that the civil servants have to accept this challenge that the citizens do not have to wander from pillar to post for their work. Problems should be solved through camps in the wards of villages and cities. Several measures were implemented in the direction of good governance including CM Helpline. Public hearing, one-day governance and Samadhan online are such measures. By connecting these with technology, attention has to be paid to remove the anomalies that come up along with the settlement of tasks. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan also mentioned in detail the role of a civil servant through the shlokas of Gita.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that the civil servant is also a leader and his responsibility is also to boost everyone's enthusiasm by treating them equally. There should be no arrogance in the person. There should be no lack of enthusiasm. Find a way to resolve problems with patience. The attitude should be to cheer up even a person who is surrounded by despair. As a person thinks, so he also becomes. The civil servant does not work only for himself, but his work affects the public and the whole country. There should be the art of making irrelevant work relevant. If a person wants, he can change the perception of the world towards the country. All the countrymen have experienced this thing. Similarly a civil servant can change the department by working in the right direction. Civil servants should try to give maximum contribution. That's why civil services have been considered useful for the nation, not just for the individual.

Social revolution is taking place in the state for women empowerment: Chief Minister Shri Chouhan
Bhopal:MMNN: 20 March 2023
Bhopal.Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that social revolution is taking place in Madhya Pradesh for women empowerment. Schemes like Mukhya Mantri Kanya Vivah Yojana, Ladli Laxmi Yojana, 50 percent reservation for women in local elections, reservation in police recruitment, livelihood mission and Sambal are being implemented successfully. Now the Ladli Bahna Yojana has been started, which will not only lead to overall development of women, but will also increase their respect and self-confidence in the society.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan was addressing the Ladli Bahna Sammelan at Lanji in Balaghat district today. He distributed benefits under various schemes to the sisters. Initially, Chief Minister Shri Chouhan performed Kanya-Pujan and welcomed the sisters by showering flowers. Sisters presented Rakhi to the Chief Minister. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan handed over a check of Rs 10 lakh to sister Anjali Choure, who runs Didi Cafe under the National Rural Livelihood Mission.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that the aim of my life is the welfare of sisters. If there is laughter on the lips of the sisters, then the life of the brother is successful. The respect of women is highest in Madhya Pradesh. Sisters don't tolerate any kind of injustice, your brother is always with you. Don't worry about the marriage of sisters and daughters, Shivraj Mama will get them married.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that before becoming the Chief Minister, my wife and I used to get poor daughters married together. When I became the Chief Minister, I first started the Mukhyamantri Kanya Vivah Yojana. The previous government did not give the benefit of this scheme to anyone. Now we have decided that under this scheme a check of Rs 50,000 will be given to the daughters and Rs 6,000 to the organizing body.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that daughters have been made a boon instead of a curse in Madhya Pradesh. In the Ladli Lakshmi Yojana, 30 thousand rupees are deposited in the name of a girl child as soon as she is born, so that she gets funds from time to time for her studies etc. Today there are 44 lakh 50 thousand dear Lakshmi daughters in Madhya Pradesh. The maternal uncle also pays the fees for the education and higher education of the daughters.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that today a large number of sisters are representing in the Panchayats. They have got political empowerment. In Madhya Pradesh, 50 percent seats in panchayats have been reserved for sisters. Women are also being given reservation in police recruitment. Self-help groups of women are formed by the Rural and Urban Livelihood Mission and financial and other assistance is provided to them for various activities. Due to this their economic and social empowerment is taking place. At the same time, their self-confidence is increasing.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that ever since he became the Chief Minister this time, the thought was constantly coming in his mind as to what gift he should give to the sisters. I thought of giving gifts to sisters not once but every month. Last January 28 at 4 am the concept of Ladli Bahna Yojana came to my mind and I decided that every month I will put 1000 rupees in the account of poor and lower middle class sisters. The benefit of Ladli Bahna Yojana will be given to all those sisters whose family's annual income is less than two and a half lakh rupees. Sisters will not have to give any income certificate for this. Just a form has to be filled, which our employees will come to your village/locality and get it filled. Along with this, they will also get your e-KYC done.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that the filling of forms for Ladli Bahna Yojana will start from March 25, which will continue till April 30. Money will start coming into the accounts of the sisters from coming 10th June. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan clearly said that there is no need to give any amount to the sisters to take advantage of the scheme. In each case for e-KYC, the government will give Rs 15 to the organization doing KYC. If any person demands any amount from the sisters, then complain about it immediately on 181, action will be taken against that person. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that women should play their part in the implementation of the scheme by joining the “Ladli Bahna Sena”. The Chief Minister called upon to raise voice against domestic violence, social evils and injustice. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that from coming April 1, all liquor vends will be closed in the state.

The process of applying for Mukhyamantri Ladli Bahna Yojana is simple – Chief Minister Shri Chouhan
Bhopal:MMNN: 19 March 2023
Bhopal.Chief Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that Mukhyamantri Ladli Bahna Yojana has been made for the empowerment of sisters. The most important thing in empowerment is economic empowerment. If sisters have money, then they also have self-confidence and a sense of self-respect is also awakened. That's why we have decided to put 1000 rupees every month in the account of every eligible sister under Mukhyamantri Ladli Bahna Yojana. Those sisters who are between 23 to 60 years of age, married, family income less than Rs 2.5 lakh per annum and families having less than 5 acres of land will be eligible under the scheme. Family means husband, wife and their children. One thousand rupees will come in the account of such eligible sisters every month. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said this in a message issued on social and electronic media.
Sisters do not need to go to public service center or anywhere else
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that it is my duty that my sisters do not face any problem. Hence the application process in the scheme has been made very simple. The forms of the scheme will be filled in the wards of your village and city. Sisters do not need to go to Public Service Center or anywhere else. Our employees will come to all the villages and get the forms filled. For this, camps will start from March 25. Camps will be held until the applications of all the sisters are filled.
Composite ID. If you have aadhar number then there will be no problem
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan told that apart from registering their name, husband's name, mobile number etc. in the application, the sisters should have three essential information.

Bhopal:MMNN: 17 March 2023
Bhopal.Chief Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan has felicitated Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi for setting up "PM Mitra" Mega Integrated Textile Park in Dhar district of Madhya Pradesh. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that this decision of the Prime Minister is to promote investment in the textile sector and generate employment. Will prove helpful in creating many opportunities.
Many states have shown interest in setting up PM Mitra Park and have given their proposals to the Ministry of Textiles. The list of selected states has been announced on 17 March 2023 after a year long evaluation, discussion and information sharing. Madhya Pradesh is also included in the 7 states selected for setting up PM Mitra Park. The PM Mitra sites were selected by the Central Government through a challenge method.
PM Mitra Park Scheme
The Union Ministry of Textiles had launched the PM Mitra Park Scheme worth Rs 4,445 crore to set up 7 Mega Integrated Textile Region and Apparel (PM Mitra) Parks. The objective of the scheme is to develop integrated large scale and modern industrial infrastructure facilities for the entire value chain of the textile industry. The scheme is inspired by the Prime Minister's 5-F vision - from Farm to Fiber, from Fiber to Factory, from Factory to Fashion and from Fashion to Foreign. It aspires to fulfill the vision of building a 'Self-reliant India' and firmly establish India on the global textile map.
The Madhya Pradesh government is keen to set up an integrated large-scale textile and apparel park over 1,000 acres of land parcel with world-class industrial infrastructure, which will attract state-of-the-art technology. Along with this, FDI and local investment will be promoted in the textile sector.
The park is planned to be developed with all basic infrastructure facilities like internal roads, power distribution infrastructure, water and waste water treatment plants, plug and play infrastructure development, factory sites, incubation centres, etc. The park will also include ancillary facilities, including a common pretreatment unit, common effluent treatment plant (CETP), workers' hostels and housing (especially for women workers), health facilities, training and skill development, storage, logistics etc.
The proposed park with integrated textile value chain at one place will reduce the logistics cost of the industry and improve the competitiveness of the entire value chain of textile and apparel industry in the state. Employment generation will get a boost from this park, which will provide employment to one lakh direct and 2 lakh indirect people. The Central Government will support the establishment of the proposed park in the form of 'Development Capital Support' (DCS) of Rs 500 crore (Rs 300 crore + Rs 200 crore) in 2 phases.
In order to encourage the manufacturing units to be set up soon in the proposed PM Mitra Park, a provision has been made to give Rs 300 crore per park in 'Competitive Incentive Assistance' (CIS). The unit set up in the park will be provided incentive up to 3 per cent of the total sales turnover. The benefit will be available on “First Come-First Serve” basis subject to the prescribed conditions.
The eco-system for the textile and apparel sector is well developed in Madhya Pradesh. The state has good availability of raw materials (such as cotton, silk and man-made fibers) and a progressive textile policy framework. The state has attracted investors in this sector from across the country. Madhya Pradesh produces cotton, it also has ginning and spinning units to convert cotton into yarn, which is converted into cloth. Presently the state also has apparel units. The units in the state export cotton, yarn and garments. In this way, Madhya Pradesh fulfills the 5-F vision of Prime Minister Shri Modi. PM Mitra Park will further strengthen the development of textile and apparel industry in Madhya Pradesh, which will provide employment and prosperity to the people here.
Madhya Pradesh has received the maximum investment of Rs 3,513 crore in the central government's Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for the textile sector. PM Mitra Park Yojana will provide an excellent opportunity to fulfill the vision of 'Make in India' and 'Make for the World'.

Move from Conventional Practices to Innovative Budget Making - Shri Kamal Nath
Bhopal:MMNN: 18 February 2020
Bhopal.Former Deputy Chairman of the erstwhile Planning Commission, Shri M.S. Ahluwalia stressed the need for considering rewriting the Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management Act in the changing contexts in view
of the increasing finance needs and fiscal limitations of States. There is a need for enacting a law for public-private partnership to overcome the budget constraints for socially important economic infrastructure projects, he added.
He was addressing a workshop organized by the Finance Department on the subject of 'Alternative Finance for Projects' at the local Minto Hall here today.
Addressing the workshop, the Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath said that the
global economic scenario is changing rapidly. Therefore, the financial institutions and the governments also need to change their thought-process. He said that in a vast country like India has largest society of aspirational youth
and increased budget resources are required to fulfill their ambitions. He said that it is becoming challenging to mobilize financial resources for the changed and constantly changing India and its States. Therefore, banks, state governments
and private sector institutions need to adopt the change. He laid stress on deviating from the process of conventional budget making process and working on alternative processes and innovative ideas. He said that it has become necessary
to focus attention on the economic activities that generate jobs.
The Chief Minister said that in a State like Madhya Pradesh, there are abundant natural resources but in expanding economic activities, they are far behind. He said
that efforts are being made to make Madhya Pradesh's agriculture fully modernized so that the economic activities associated with agriculture can also be expanded. He said that Madhya Pradesh is far ahead in agricultural production
but there are many obstacles in exploiting the market potential.
The Chief Minister said that the budget resources mobilization of many countries is excellent even without laws like fiscal responsibility and budget management.
He said that there is a reduction of Rs. 14 thousand crores in Madhya Pradesh's share in the Union Budget. He emphasized on having a new vision and fresh approach to managing budget resources and improving governance.
Shri Ahluwalia
said that designing projects, making budget provisions for them and completing them within available resources is a common practice across the world. The fact is that governments have limited financial resources for ambitious projects.
The Governments have many tasks, responsibilities, priorities and social obligations apart from economic infrastructure projects. There are many challenges in completing them simultaneously. As a result, the speed of projects slows
down and they start lagging behind. He said that there is a need to think beyond the conventional approach of depending on budgetary resources. In such a situation, States look towards the private sector for assistance. The private
sector is fearful of risks and threats while the governments are bound by the welfare principles beyond the loss and profit. Both have their limitations. Therefore, there is a need for a law to work in cooperation between the two.
Shri Ahluwalia said that instead of managing finances for large economic infrastructural projects, the system of providing guarantee by the state should also be considered. The governments should assume the role of a friend in managing
the financial risks for the projects. For example, in order to deal with the ill effects of climate change, infrastructure projects of economic importance should be given a guarantee. These may include irrigation and water conservation
projects. He said that considering the density of forest resources, Madhya Pradesh can raise budget resources on its basis. This process can also be adopted for sector-specific dedicated infrastructure projects.
Finance Minister
Mr. Tarun Bhanot gave welcome address. The Chief Secretary Shri S.R. Mohanty said that Madhya Pradesh is not new to innovative practice of mobilizing budget resources. The B.O.T. road projects and Rogi Kalyan Samitis for hospital management
are the best examples.
The workshop was attended by top officers of banks, budget experts from the corporate sector, scholars with special abilities in budget formulation and senior officials of departments. Earlier, Chief Minister
Mr. Kamal Nath presented a memento to Shri Ahluwalia.

percentage of the drinking water system of villages is based on ground water. That is why the declining ground water level is increasing the water crisis every year. He said that in the coming five years as per the intention of the

honoured the scholars with the Shastra Kala Nidhi at the Shastrarth Sabha and presented them ang vastras, shriphal and souvenirs.
Governor Shri Tandon said that many cultures were embedded in Indian culture. Each of them has also
their own philosophy. All these traditions are still alive today, because social and religious changes have taken place from time to time on the basis of reasoning by way of Shastrarth. Shastrarth is a unique heritage of our culture.
It needs to be revived. The Governor said that in Indian culture, peace and knowledge in the universe are prayed for. This is purely on logical grounds. Peace comes from knowledge. This will happen only if there is knowledge and peace
in the whole universe.
The Governor described the presence of a large number of self-motivated spectators at the programme as an auspicious sign. He said that the deep roots of Indian culture are embedded in us. The Gurukul of
Maharishi Sandipani located in Ujjain reminds us of the special qualities of the Indian education system. Krishna, an expert in many disciplines and arts, received education here, which suggests that there was a system of holistic
education in the ancient education system. Students of the royal family as well as students from the ordinary poor family received education together.

astrology, literature and grammar at the Shastrarth Sabha. In the discussion of grammar topic, the Poorva Paksh and Uttar Paksha expressed rational views on the Nitya and Anitya of the word Shabd. In the Shastrarth, the difference
of Dhwani to Anitya and Shabd to Nitya were established. The Shastrarth Sabha deliberated on the forms of Nitya and Anitya under the justice, astrology, literature and grammar. In the discussion of literature, rational views were presented
by Poorva Paksh and Uttar Paksh on Kavya Lakshana. In the discussion, scholars presented thoughts on whether Shabd is Kavya or Gun is Kavya with reason. Kaal Tattva in Jyotish Shastrarth was discussed. The scholars held a discussion
on the interpretation of the form of Kaal. During Nyay Shastrarth, Nuclearism was discussed. On the basis of logic, it was stated by the Poorva Paksh that there cannot be division beyond atom, hence it is Nitya. Uttar Paksh said that
which is invisible and indivisible cannot be a molecule.

Change mindset, change profile of Madhya Pradesh, go from e-governance to We-governance
Bhopal:MMNN: 3 January 2020
Bhopal.Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath, while extending New Year wishes to everyone during the first meeting of the New Year with senior administrative officials at the Mantralaya here today, discussed the priorities
of the government. The Chief Minister said in his address that the government is now a year old. The government’s approach to the administrative machinery has become clear. He said that everyone has put the government on test. He said
that every government and Chief Minister has his own vision and style of functioning and the administration machinery also has its own methods.
The Chief Minister, while counting the priorities of the government in the new year,
said that bringing about a change in thinking is utmost necessary. A new identity of Madhya Pradesh will be created only by a change in mindset. He said that there should be no difference in the way the government thinks and the administrative
system works.
The Chief Minister said that there has been a change in the administration methods that the Britishers taught in the country. The Britishers only taught how to protect the interests of the state. Today, protecting
the interests of common citizens, consumers and beneficiaries is being prioritized. He said that the government now needs to be friendly and cooperative with full accountability. He urged to consider necessary changes in the rules,
laws, procedures and to give suggestions with self inspiration. He said that many schemes remain incomplete due to lack of budget and many other reasons. There is need to focus on the schemes pending with the central government on
priority. Take full advantage of the central schemes and remove the obstacles. The Chief Minister said that we cannot change time but time will definitely change us, so work with time to move forward and take the state ahead.
The Chief Minister said that there is a need to work together on how to change the profile of Madhya Pradesh. An atmosphere of trust and confidence should be created in the state so that a new identity of Madhya Pradesh is created
in the country. The Chief Minister said that the biggest challenge is to improve governance and administration. It starts from the senior level to the lower level. Every department must make contribution and play role in this process.
Shri Nath said that every department will also have to see what new changes are happening in other states related to its field. We must learn from the success and failures of others. For this, he told to create a review cell in every
department and make a vision document. He told not to depend on the formality of correspondence to resolve the pending schemes in the central government, but constantly contact the concerned authorities and find out solutions so that
the state will get the full benefits of the budget provisions and schemes.
E-governance to We-governance
The Chief Minister told the officers that more attention needs to be given on enabling service delivery systems so that
common citizens can get full benefits of it. The more effective the service delivery system, the more effective administration will be. He said that now there is a need to move from e-governance to We-governance. Old systems must be
reviewed and changes must be made in ineffective systems to make them effective. He said that there is some drawback of every change, but it is not right to ignore big gains for small losses.
The Chief Minister said that tribal
welfare and forest wealth protection are among the significant priorities of the government. He told to study the good works happening in other states as well. The attitude of not changing with the changes and times is not right. A
committee must be formed in every department to study the good work being done in other states.
The Chief Minister said that the system of giving quick approval in the field of industry should be implemented so that investors do not have to wander to complete formalities. Talking about clean cities, the Chief Minister said
that Indore and Bhopal are lauded. Beyond this, it will be necessary to think about what new dimensions can be added in the field of cleanliness. The Chief Minister said that while considering the provision of compulsory painting for
large government and non-government buildings built on the side of the roads, enacting a law is also being considered with a view to enhance the beauty of the cities. He said that a small effort will be made to bring about a change
in attitude.
Land Management Authority to be constituted
The Chief Minister also briefed about the formation of Land Management Authority with the objective of using unused lands owned by various departments in public interest.
He said that every department should review how much land is useful for them and how much is lying unused. He said on such land, schemes like construction of houses for poor can be made.
The Chief Minister said that departments
need not be too sensitive for land ownership as such lands will ultimately be used in the public interest. Mentioning about the government's land near BHEL, he said that it is neither being used by the government nor it is being used
by the BHEL. The departments should either use the land or allow the land available with them to be used.
Staff Selection Commission within a week
The Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath said that the Staff Selection Commission
should start functioning in the next one week. Complete all its formalities. As regard to the Skill Development, he said that it is important to assess the success achieved in skill development work and priority should be decided which
skills are useful for employment. Pay attention on the skills that are necessary for the state. Cooperate fully to encourage economic activities, he added.
Referring to the launch of the second phase of loan waiver of farmers,
the Chief Minister said that there is a scope for Madhya Pradesh to become a horticulture capital not only of India but also of the world. Fully capitalize this scope. There is a lot of potential for floriculture. The food processing
is an integrally connected field with this sector. He said that we have to strive together how to connect Madhya Pradesh with the changes taking place in the world. He said the change will continue at its own pace. If the steps are
not taken with the change, we will be left behind.
Regarding the Education sector, the Chief Minister said that there is a need to do lot more in the field of education. He mentioned that at present there is a lack of quality in
education from college to primary level. There is a need to improve the standard. Strategic efforts have to be enhanced. We will have to start from the primary schools. He said that a huge budget is spent in the field of education
but without improving the education quality, we are unable to gain in future.
Campaign against drug companies manufacturing spurious medicines
Referring to the priority of the health sector, the Chief Minister said that there
is a need to appoint Ayurvedic doctors in every primary health centre and to ensure optimum use of schemes like Ayushman.
The Chief Minister stated that it has become a trend to use departmental budget in the month of January,
February and March. It is important to avoid this trend. Referring to the ‘Shuddh ke liye Yuddh’ campaign, the Chief Minister said that the situation to fight for purity is unpleasant in itself. He further mentioned that now campaign
will be launched against the companies involved in manufacturing of spurious medicines. He further added that in the public interest, he is committed to make Madhya Pradesh a state of purity. Similarly, he is also committed to abolish
mafias. Shri Kamal Nath mentioned that the common men should not be considered as mafia for violation of law. He said that the government will not tolerate blackmailing mafias, which pressurize as individual or group. The Chief Minister
said that the government will have to take steps to empower the tribal community, dwelling in the forest areas by adopting a collaborative stand. Even with evidence, it is not appropriate to ask for the record from such poor people
and to follow the old trend.
The Chief Minister said that eradication of malnutrition is one of the priorities. Apart from this we will have to work further keeping in view the high potential in tourism in the state. He said that
Madhya Pradesh has more potential in comparison to other states and the state can overtake many states in heritage tourism.
The Chief Secretary Shri S.R. Mohanty shed light on the achievements of the previous year.

Attempt to change mentality of saying no to yes
Bhopal:MMNN: 18 December 2019
Bhopal.Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath has said that the governance-administration must have a positive outlook for the progress of the state and effective implementation of public welfare schemes. He said that after
becoming Chief Minister, I have made an effort to change the mindset of saying no, to the mindset of saying yes to improve the system. He said that I am preparing such a profile of Madhya Pradesh that the identity of the state should
be established not only in the country but in the whole world. Shri Kamal Nath was releasing the book “Chunav hai badlav ka” written by journalist Brijesh Rajput at a private hotel today. On this occasion, Public Relations Minister
Shri P.C. Sharma was also present.
The Chief Minister said that it is easiest to say no to any work because on saying yes you have to do the work and give results. He said that after becoming the Chief Minister, the biggest challenge
before me was how to change this mindset in the system. Shri Nath said that my efforts in this direction are continuous. He said that political change does not bring change, we also have to see what change has come in the way of working
of the machinery that is working in the delivery system. He said that today there has been a change in every field, the expectations of the people for whom we are working have increased. In such a situation, it is necessary that the
way of working of our system also changes so that we can get better results.
The Chief Minister said that I can see from the perspective of voters why they wanted this political change that has taken place in Madhya Pradesh after
15 years. The challenge before us is to understand the feelings of change in voters and work accordingly. There should be revolution in the field of agriculture for the economic prosperity of the people in the state, to make the life
of the people happy. Until and unless the agriculture sector is not strengthened, the economy cannot be strengthened because 70 percent of the state’s population is directly and indirectly dependent on agriculture. Increase in economic
activity is must because only this creates employment opportunities and a basic economy. Shri Kamal Nath said that after good production, how to utilize the produce better is also a challenge for us. Our procurement system is of the
time when there was less production. We will also have to change that system so that farmers can sell their produce easily and they can get the right price. The Chief Minister said that our policies should also be simple. A policy
that blocks our development is of no use. Referring to creating an environment of trust for investment, he said that we have changed our policies, which brought investment not only from our country but also from abroad in many areas.
The Chief Minister said that after the change, we had another challenge which was that of financial crisis. The previous government announced several such schemes without budget provision. Along with the empty coffers, we have to bear
the financial burden of these schemes also. Due to excessive rainfall, farmers and infrastructure have had to suffer losses worth Rs 8 thousand crores. We are working with management even in these adverse circumstances.
The Chief
Minister said that the field of news media has also witnessed change. After print media, electronic media and now Google and Internet have brought about a new revolution in the field of communication. In this, the biggest challenge
before all the people connected with our media is how to uphold the honour of their profession. He said that if the media goes in the wrong direction, then the country has to suffer.
Initially senior journalist Shri Rasheed Qidwai
gave information about the author Shri Brijesh Rajput and his book. The author Shri Brijesh Rajput threw light on the content of his book writing. Journalist Shri Manoj Sharma conducted the programme.

I want assessment certificate from people for my works: CM Shri Kamal Nath
Bhopal:MMNN: 16 December 2019
Bhopal.Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath has said that I want a certificate of assessment of my work from the public. ‘I avoid self-praise through publicity, hoarding and branding’. Referring to the glorious day of the
creation of a new nation “Bangladesh” defeating Pakistan 48 years ago on December 16, 1971, by the former Prime Minister Smt. Indira Gandhi, Shri Kamal Nath said that it would have been nice if it would have been celebrated as Vijay
Diwas in the whole country. The Chief Minister said this during a special talk with a private channel today on the completion of one year of the government. On this occasion, the Chief Minister openly expressed his views on the basic
changes made in the state in a year and on national and international issues.
My efforts is to ensure that people have faith in the government
On works done by him maintaining a distance with publicity, Chief Minister Shri
Kamal Nath said ‘I believe that the final stamp on our works should be put by the people’. On behalf of the people, it should be said that it has faith in the government and leadership. This certificate is most important to us. If
events, campaigns and redundancy promotions are made, but ground reality is different, then it is betrayal of the public.
Our goal is timely implementation of schemes
On the functioning of his government during the last one
year in the state, the Chief Minister said that till now ‘I have got only nine and a half months to work’. My first attempt was to change the thinking, attitudes and outlook of the governance and administration. No matter what policy
we form, if it is not implemented on time, people do not get the benefits. With this in view, we have created an environment of change and accountability in the behaviour of the system. People should be confident that the schemes of
the government will benefit them. We have made concerted efforts in this direction. We have also worked with the view that the investment that is already been made here should be have faith in the government. ‘I believe that till we
do not generate confidence in the industries already established in the state, there will be no possibility of new investment. He said ‘I am happy to say that we have succeeded in this field’.
Our intention is not to target anyone
but create mafia-free Madhya Pradesh
On the campaign against mafia after adulteration, the Chief Minister said that today our state does not produce as much milk in comparison to the consumption. Obviously, adulterated milk is
being distributed to the people of the state. Government will not tolerate anyone messing up with public health. Therefore, we have launched a campaign against those who are involved in adulteration in food and drink including milk
production in the state. This campaign will continue. On the campaign launched against the mafia, the Chief Minister said ‘I want to clarify here that we are not targeting anyone through this’. Organized crime mafia and blackmailers
will no longer be allowed to flourish in Madhya Pradesh. We will not compromise on the development of the state and interests of the people. He said that today when we talk about investment in the state, we will also have to create
an environment for investors in which they can work fearlessly without any pressure. He said that ever since we have launched this campaign, people are fearlessly complaining against the mafia. People are also sending mails to me.
This makes it clear that people are tired of the mafia. They did not want to get exposed due to fear. They were not being heard since the last 15 years. The mafia had political patronage. We will continue to make the state mafia-free
so that society and the state remain safe.
Religion is a matter of our faith, not politics
On starting the plans for development of Rampath Van Gaman Marg and the pilgrimage sites of the state including the Mahakal temple,
Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath said that all this work is not on political agenda but is being fulfilled as a responsibility of the government to respect the faiths and beliefs of the people. He said that India is a country of different
cultures, religions and languages.Due to this characteristic, the whole world looks up to India with respect. We will continue to work in this direction so that this respect remains intact.
It would have been nice if 1971’s glory
day was celebrated in the whole country
The Chief Minister said that today we are celebrating Vijay Diwas in the state for winning the war against Pakistan, led by Smt. Indira Gandhi in 1971. With the courage with which our jawans
of all the three wings of our defence, defeated Pakistan in this war, could not have a day of greater pride for the Indians after independence. This was the first time in the history of the world after the Second World War, when 93
thousand soldiers of Pakistan surrendered before the Indian Army. Pakistan Army General Niazi had surrendered by taking off his gun and belt in front of the Army Chief General Manekshaw. Formation of a new country was made possible
by the efforts of Smt. Indira Gandhi by freeing Bangladeshis from the exploitation of Pakistan. She was given the title of “Iron Lady” by the whole world on this success. This day of 48 years ago was the most glorious day for all Indians.

maize growers of Chhindwara will be manifested at the Chhindwara Corn Festival 2019 being held on 15 and 16 December 2019. An opportunity for them to know what is the latest in farm mechanization, maize processing, maize based food
products and maize market scenario. In addition, they will also get a chance to interact with maize scientists and other experts.
Today maize has become a commercial crop. To harness the benefits of rising production, it has become
necessary to have maize based agri–processing units. Rich in nutrients, maize offers opportunities for setting up maize–based small scale entreprises. Maize production in Chhindwara district alone has increased from 6 lakh 23 thousand
MT to 12 lakh MT. The acreage of maize has also increased from 1.24 lakh hectare to 2.95 lakh hectare. The maize production in the State has touched 46 lakh MT.
Director of Indian Maize Research Institute, Ludhiana, Dr. Sanjay Rakshit says that maize production has shown upward trend in Madhya Pradesh but value addition and processing is yet to be done. It is expected that maize processing
will start here so that the maize farmers can reap optimum benefits.
A progressive farmer from Haryana Mr. Kamal Chauhan appreciates organizing the Corn Festival saying that such an event gives the farmers new technological interventions,
which they can suitably use.
Food processing expert Dr. Ramnath Suryavanshi believes that key players in farm industry should focus attention on the potential of setting up maize–based processing units as its economic market is
growing. It is now an employment-generating crop. It can help double the income of farmers.
Dr. S.R. Azad, Director of Madhya Pradesh Vigyan Sabha is involved in imparting training to tribal farmers for making maize toasts and
biscuits and providing them market. He says that there is an urgent need to raise awareness among the consumers about the nutritional quality of maize. There is also a need to connect small farmers directly with maize– based food processing
units. Chhindwara is an ideal district for this.
Nutri Bakery
The Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath believes that farmers should get opportunities to join agri–entrepreneurship, so that they are not limited to production only
and also emerge as an entrepreneur.
Realising the vision of the Chief Minister, the tribal women in Tamia block of Chhindwara district have succeeded in establishing Nutri Bakery. They are economically self-dependent now. They
make maize toasts and biscuits, which are a popular nutritious food items. This is not only helping them address nutritional deficiency but also helping the tribal women earn handsome livelihoods. Their income base has also improved.
At least four Nutri Bakery Units are operating in Tamia. The women, who were earning hardly about Rs. 1500 a month are now getting Rs. 4 to 5 thousand a month.
Earlier, these tribal women were either engaged in farming or collecting
minor forest produce. They used to migrate to the surrounding districts searching petty farm works during Kharif. Hardly, they could earn around Rs. 1500 a month. They started a bakery for maize, millet, Mahua, Amla based products.
The Corn Toasts and biscuits are popular in the region. In the local market, these women market these food items themselves.
Now these tribal women are capable of imparting training to their fellow women. Samoka Bai, a member of
the Ragini self-help group of Harsh Diwari village in Tamia underwent seven-day bakery training. She describes how she skilled herself in operating machines used in the bakery and how corn toasts are made. Also she gained knowledge
about quality, cost and marketing.
Similarly, Sumaravati Bai is a member of Durga self-help group of Matkadhana village also got the similar training. Her SHG is making toasts using a small furnace and selling it in the local market.
Saroj Bai, a member of the Radhakrishna self-help group of Saldhana (Bagai) village, who is interested in marketing, has now started business with the support of other members.
The success of Nutri Bakery has evoked a good response.
Many government departments and voluntary organizations expressed interest in the initiative. National Rural Livelihoods Mission, Tejaswini project of Women and Child Development Department, Forest Department and Chai India (Madhya
Pradesh Chapter) have approached for assistance in setting up the Nutri Bakery. Tejaswini has set up two bakeries in Mandla district and two more are being planned.

ways. Its animal food especially poultry feed is made of maize and is in high demand. As the poultry industry is growing, the demand for poultry feed has increased. Popular food items such as corn flakes are popular. Maize is consumed
as a foodgrain and has industrial use also. A good yield is possible in less water. It is a climate change–resilient crop. Maize is rich in nutrients. It contains 71 percent starch, 9 to 10 percent protein, 4 to 45 percent fat, 9 to
10 percent fiber, 2 to 3 percent sugar and 1.4 percent mineral.

Bringing equality in judicial system is the biggest challenge: CM Shri Kamal Nath
Bhopal:MMNN: 7 December 2019
Bhopal.Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath has said that in the present context, there is a need to make improvements in the Judiciary, Executive and Legislature for a strong democracy. The biggest challenge before us today
is that everyone should get justice, get it on time and there should be equality. The Chief Minister was addressing a seminar organized by the Confederation of Alumni of National Law Universities Foundation (CAN) in the Madhya Pradesh
Vidhan Sabha Auditorium.
Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath said that our existing system has to be seen in the context of the changes going on in every field. He said that freedom and equality are the basis of unity of our country, which we provide to the
people through the judicial system. Shri Kamal Nath said that there is no country like India in the whole world nor is there a constitution of any country like India. He said that when India became independent, creation of a Constitution
was a challenge. This was the biggest challenge because India is a country of diversities. There are diversities of food and attire from North to South. There is diversity in dialects and culture as well as customs and traditions.
Formation of a Constitution for such a country was a challenging job. The Chief Minister said that with this Constitution, the Executive, Judiciary and Legislature came into existence and we got basic elements like law of governance.
The Chief Minister said that today the challenge is how we should go with the changes taking place in the world and how we succeed in adopting them. One of the challenges is also that how improvements have to be made in the Executive
and Judiciary according to the changes. He said that we have a huge number of entrepreneurs. We have maximum young human resources. Till ten years ago, youth had limited access to knowledge and technology. Today it has increased due
to internet. The Chief Minister said that how this change should be adopted by the judiciary, executive and legislature is a challenge.
Speaker of Madhya Pradesh Vidhan Sabha Shri Narmada Prasad Prajapati said that how the judiciary
and the legislature should come together to give better system to the people should be seriously considered. Chief Justice of Madhya Pradesh High Court Justice Shri A.K. Mittal said that along with infrastructure for justice, we also
have to bring fundamental changes in the judicial system with time. Along with bringing judicial awareness, the judicial system will also have to be improved at the ground level. He said that law students and advocates have to jointly
bring about changes in their work functioning and improve judicial system. He said that a policy should be made that students pursuing law should do internship in rural areas for a year. This will enable us to know people’s expectations.
He said that law students can make a career through their education but they should have a sense of duty as this education is related to meting out justice to people.
Supreme Court Justice Shri A.M. Khanwilkar said that the initiative
of the National Law University alumni who have served in the field of education and health through the CAN Foundation is the greatest human service. He said that the foundation of our justice system is also the section of society which
is poor, deprived of resources. They should get justice, this is the goal. Shri Khanvilkar said that education leads to excellent human development. With this point of view, the National Law Institute is preparing an efficient human
resource. MP Shri Vivek Tankha also addressed this seminar.
On this occasion, Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath felicitated those who excelled in various fields and released the CAN Foundation’s magazine “Chandragupta”. The Foundation’s

has just bought new planes
2.Improved Domestic Connectivity:
We want better domestic connectivity. We are right now looking at these routes from Bhopal.
North- Chandigarh, Lucknow and Amritsar West- Goa, Ahmedabad, Vadodara
South- Chennai, Kochi/Trivandrum
East- Kolkata, Patna, Guwahati, Bhubaneswar
3.International Connectivity:
We are looking for an international connectivity from Bhopal. We have enough traffic to support flights to and
from Dubai. Request you to give us a connection at least three days a week. The international status is demanded for our airport. We also require a flight to Singapore to support this.
4. 24 Hours Operation:
Time and again
we have been told by various airlines that the red eye slots are available from vari- ous important destinations. We cannot avail the same as our Airport does not operate during the night and there is no night landing facility available.
We sincerely request you to please provide the same so that we can avail the red eye slots.
5. Promotion of Bhopal as a Tourist Destination:
It is also imperative to note that Bhopal despite being the centre of India with
one of the best geographical locations in the country and the best tourist destinations is not being promoted. We re- quest you to help us promote Bhopal on various pilgrim circuits like Buddhist, Patna- Bhopal- Shri Lanka. The Om
circuit which connects various Shiva temples can include Bhojpur temple of Bhopal. A beautiful destination like Khajuraho which is the pride of our nation is thoroughly neglected. A flight from Bhopal to Khajuraho with a proper marketing
from the government can help tourisms in both Bhopal and Khajuraho. There are so many such things in and around Bhopal which, with your patronage can develop Bhopal as a tourist and cultural hub.

priority in the Constitution. In the Judicial system, efforts should be made with more sensitivity in this direction that the weak person gets prompt justice. He said that along with the constitutional rights, duties also need to be
considered. The Governor said that language also has a prominent place in the symbols of national pride. Making a copy of the judgments of the court available in Hindi should also be considered. He said that informal programmes of
mutual harmony and coordination should be initiated in the various services of the Constitution. This will pave the way for solving contemporary social issues.

court today were not there earlier. These changes should be attributed to the judicial system. He said that 72 years ago, we had attained independence after a big struggle. It was a big challenge for the framers of the Constitution
to make everyone stand under a flag with religious, social and cultural variations. It is a matter of pride that the makers of our Constitution have built the nation with so many variations. No such example is found anywhere in the
world today. He said that we should be proud of our Constitution. A country owes its honour to its Constitution. He said that on the occasion of Constitution Day, a resolution should be taken as to what kind of country we want to give
to future generations. Faith should also be demonstrated along with pride in the Constitution.

are in line with the objectives of the Constitution. He said that Constitution Day helps in enhancing the knowledge of our future generations, so that they can understand the importance of Constitution, respect it and follow it properly.
The Constitution Day replaces the importance of keeping the democratic system connected to the Constitution. The youth should be apprised of the struggle, hard work and cooperation of the constitution makers that contribute to building
an independent, democratic and self-reliant nation. It should not be considered only as an occasion celebrated by the government and political parties, but should be celebrated with enthusiasm to express gratitude to those who contributed

them, we cannot think comprehensive development of the state. He said that the biggest challenge before us today is how to identify the changes and to adopt them. He said that the big companies, which we had 20 years ago are not
in existence today, as they did not recognize the changes. The companies, which moved ahead with the time have carved their niche in the business. Citing an example of Uber and Ola companies, Shri Kamal Nath said that the basic

the small problems of the system, which were troublesome for the investors. He gave an example that not to establish other industries, despite having additional land, we have abolished provisions like sub-lease and due to this
the government has gained trust of the people. Shri Kamal Nath has informed that significant efforts have been started in agriculture, investment, tourism and entertainment sector. This will help in enhancing our economic activities.

Yojana was that through this, money should reach the villages and increase the purchasing power of the people.
Only then would we be able to develop economically. Referring to the agricultural sector, he said that we have increased
production through various resources, but we did not pay attention to how the production would be used and how farmers would benefit from the increased production due to which our economy besides the farmers weakened.
The Chief
Minister said that economic problems are the root cause of social problems. If we find a solution for this, then we would be able to control social problems as well. Shri Kamal Nath said that the state government intends to develop
small, trade, business and industry. We expect to know that the problems in the development of trade, business industry due to the system. We do not want anyone to waste their time in running from pillar to post. We want to create
such an environment in the state in which we can use this time in trade-business and our work. The government is ready to take positive decisions at all levels for the development of the state. We are moving ahead together to create
a new map of development of Madhya Pradesh.
Former Chief Minister Shri Digvijay Singh said that the Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath deserves all praise for winning the trust of the investors through Magnificent MP. Shri Singh

which is much lower than many states including Gujarat, Haryana, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh. The unemployment rate in the country is 7.7 percent. The only reason for this is the efforts of Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath made in
the last ten months.

presented a cheque of Rs. 5 lakh one thousand to Shri Kamal Nath for protection and conservation of cows in the state.

Bhopal:MMNN: 3 October 2019
Bhopal.The Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath said that the various programmes and policies of the Union Government are directly and indirectly affecting development of states. He asserted that the Centre should play
a role to encourage states and should increase states’ share in its schemes. Shri Kamal Nath was addressing a session’Union of States’ of the India Economic Summit organised under the joint aegis of the World Economic Forum and
Confederation of Indian Industry in New Delhi today. The Chief Minister of Punjab and representatives of Meghalaya, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh participated in the discussion.
On the role of the Central Government in Central-State
relations, Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath said that the role of the Central Government should be encouraging, but unfortunately it is proving to be a hindrance. The share of the states in the Central schemes have come down from
90:10 to 60:40. Due to this, no economic activity is taking place. He said that the role of the Central Government should be to bring forward the capacity of the State Governments because every State is different from each other
and every state has its own specialities.
The Chief Minister said that as far as the role of the NITI Aayog is concerned, it is limited to research and formulation of policies. It has no powers, which used to be with the Planning Commission earlier. Regarding GST
reforms, Shri Kamal Nath described it as 'Apriya Gatha', which has not been implemented properly. He said that about three to four hundred amendments have been made in the GST policy so far. Raising questions on the decisions of
the GST, Shri Nath said that there was no intellectual understanding on this subject. Decisions were pre-determined. The methods to implement it were impracticable, he added.
On the issue of strong urban infrastructure and
local governance, Chief Minister Shri Kamal Nath said that India's urbanisation will be the biggest humanitarian event of the next decade. He called upon the town planners to focus on the basic things to deal with this issue. He
said urban areas are developing beyond their capacity. At present, urbanisation is taking place on its own. Sub-urbanisation is the remedy. Policies should be framed in the states to address these issues. Shri Nath also expressed
concern about the challenges in agriculture. He said now there is a need to find an answer to the problem of preserving the surplus.

Educational institutions must focus on physical development along with intellectual development of students
Bhopal:MMNN: 8 August 2019

be given physical education and yoga education along with technical education. He said that education makes a man civilized, cultured and refined. The aim of education is to serve the family, society and country. Man becomes a responsible
citizen of the country through education. Vice President Shri Naidu said this while addressing students and teachers at the second convocation ceremony of Shri Vaishnav Vidyapeeth University, Indore today.
Shri Naidu said that
education, hospital and politics are the fields of social service. Social service is the essence of all religions. Shri Vaishnav Sahayak Trust has been doing commendable work for the last 135 years while working on the formula of ‘No
profit-No loss’ through school, college, hospital and technical education.
Shri Naidu said that Indian culture envisages ‘Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinaha, Sarva Santu Niramaya’, Sarve Bhadrani Pashyantu, Maa Kashchit Dukh Bhag Bhavet'. Indian culture teaches
us to live and eat together. Thousands of years ago, Acharya Chanakya had said, 'Ayam nijaha: Paraveti, Gadana, Laghuchetasam, Udaarcharitanaam Tu Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam.' He considered the entire earth as family in that era. Acharya
Chanakya was the first economist in the world to introduce the tax system.
He said that India was the world guru in ancient times. Nalanda and Takshashila were world class universities with more than 10 thousand students. In ancient India, there have
been well-read scholars like Sushruta, Dhanvantari, Bhaskaracharya and Varahamihira. Acharya Sushruta told the world about the procedure of general and plastic surgery for the first time. In the Middle Ages, our country became a slave
to the Mughals and the British. They looted and betrayed this country, due to which we lagged behind. Now we want to make India the third largest economy in the world through liberalization, privatization, standups and startups. India
has extraordinary managers like Indira Nui and Sundar Pichai.
The Vice President said that Yoga has been declared compulsory education in Chile and Guatemala. He said that yoga is not a political or religious programme. Yoga keeps the body and mind
healthy. Environmental reform is the biggest challenge in today's era. There is need to work in the field of tree plantation and protection of animals. Considering the increasing population of the country, water conservation and water
augmentation is necessary. Human beings will be more healthy in natural environment than in air conditioning. A healthy mind resides only in a healthy body.
Governor Shri Lalji Tandon said that India's history has been glorious. India has been a world guru and will soon become a world guru again. Maharishis of India discovered zero,
based on which computer and internet systems are running today. Surgery, economics and tax system etc. have already been discovered in ancient India.
Former Lok Sabha Speaker Smt. Sumitra Mahajan said that a social organization
named Shri Vaishnav Sahayak Trust has been running several schools, hospitals, colleges and universities successfully since 135 years. This is an exemplary step.
The Public Health and Family Welfare Minister Shri Tulsiram Silavat
said that the aim of education should be innovation. No nation can progress without education. Today, the students who are going out of this university will start a new life now. Change is the law of nature. Only by upgradation in
the technical field can India become a superpower. Higher Education Minister Shri Jitu Patwari said that the students are the future of the country.
Good education can make a human being a better person, but education should be
employment oriented. The aim of education is to give good values to the students and to connect the society.

MP govt should 'correct death figures' in apex court affidavit, demand Bhopal gas victims
Bhopal:MMNN: 26 July 2019
BHOPAL: Bhopal Gas tragedy victims associated with a group of four NGOs, working among them under the banner of “International Campaign for Justice in Bhopal”, staged a demonstration at Neelam Park here to protest
alleged reluctance of the state government to present a correct figure of deaths caused because of December, 1984, Bhopal gas disaster.
The activist groups have been requesting the successive state governments to correct the death
figures caused because of exposure to lethal MIC in an affidavit before the Supreme Court, which would start hearing of a curative petition filed by the Union government in the year 2010 seeking Rs7,300 crore more compensation from
Union government or its new owner Dow Chemical.
During demonstration on Thursday, they reminded that Arif Aqueel, now gas relief minister in Kamal Nath government, had promised gas victims to get additional compensation of Rs
five lakh during his election campaign ahead of state Assembly election, 2018 if Congress form the government after winning it.
Aqueel is not taking a simple initiative which could ensure that his promise is met by submitting an affidavit that the state government on the basis of evidences available would like to revise the figures of death and injuries
caused by Bhopal gas disaster, said protester.
The demonstrators said that the welfare courts set up to decide compensation for gas victims had compensated more than 15,000 persons under category 4 (death) and another 5,74,000
for different categories of injuries inflicted by the disaster. However, figures in the papers submitted before the apex court, the figure of death due to disaster is only five thousand.

BJP only seen trailer, full movie yet to be released: MP Congress
Bhopal:MMNN: 26 July 2019
BHOPAL: State Congress on Thursday claimed that not just Narayan Tripathi and Sharad Kol, more than half a dozen BJP MLAs are in touch with chief minister Kamal Nath and want to shift loyalties. Tripathi and Kol supported
ruling Congress during the voting for a CrPC related Bill in the state assembly on Wednesday.
Chief minister’s media convener and Congress spokesman Narendra Saluja on Thursday claimed, “Some BJP MLAs who are in contact with us
are those who attend RSS shakhas in the morning and call themselves dedicated BJP-RSS workers.”
Minister for law PC Sharma said, “Chief minister has been saying for a long time that several BJP legislators are in contact with
him and they want to switch to the Congress party. Wednesday’s voting has proved that BJP MLAs are in touch with the Congress. Yesterday, we have seen only two of the Opposition MLAs supporting us. There are many more sitting on the
fence who want to cross over.”
Saluja threatened that Wednesday’s voting was only the “trailer of the real film.” Speaking to reporters, Narendra Saluja said, “Yesterday morning, leader of Opposition Gopal Bhargava had said that
if number one and number two of the BJP wanted, the Congress government would be toppled in 24 hours. But it looks like those who spoke of toppling our government, could not handle their own house.”
He said, “Chief minister Kamal
Nath has shown the BJP that numbering starts with him. Congress has been interested in the development of the state. But if the BJP’s threats continue, then they have only seen the trailer of the movie on Wednesday. Picture abhi baaki
hai.”
Meanwhile, state Congress media department chairperson Shobha Oa took a dig at the BJP. She said, “BJP was digging a pit for the Congress and fell into it. By now BJP should understand that everything cannot be purchased
with ill-gotten wealth amassed through corrupt practices. During division in the House on Wednesday, Congress MLAs stood united and proved that BJP does not have the strength to break them.”

11-yr-old girl found hanging in govt-run school hostel
Bhopal:MMNN: 23 July 2019
BHOPAL/JABALPUR: A Class VI girl was found hanging in a government-run boarding school in Dindori's Dhamangaon on Monday morning. An alleged suicide note found on her says: "I wanted to be a teacher... but I feel
I've come to hell." The victim, 11-year-old Madhu Marawi, had moved into the hostel only three days ago on July 19, after enrolling in Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya. Her family demands a CBI probe, pointing out that the knot couldn't
have been tied by an 11-year-old girl. Madhu's family lives in Bhimkundi village of Barnai panchayat in Dindori. District SP M L Solanki said police were informed at 7am on Monday about a death in the school.
Girl’s family alleges foul play, demands CBI probe
Hostels and the academic building are in the same compound, and Madhu’s body was found hanging from the staircase railings of the two-storey G3 Hostel. “Senior
police officers were immediately sent there. We are awaiting the post-mortem report, which will decide our next course of action. Prima facie, it appears to be a case of suicide,” SP Solanki said.
The family doesn’t agree. The
child’s grandfather, Bhupendra Markam, said, “There were 20 other students in the same hostel. How is it that no one came to know about it (the suicide)? The dupatta that was tied to her neck was knotted so meticulously that it is
impossible for an 11-year-old to do so. Also, the railings of the staircase are too low for a death by hanging.”
The alleged suicide note, in Hindi, says, “I wanted to become a teacher, I love my parents, uncle and aunts, brothers
and sisters. I don’t like this place. I want a transfer certificate from Dhamangaon Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya. Since the time I’ve come here, I feel I’ve come to hell.” Madhu’s father Dhiwari Singh Marawi said, “I strongly suspect
she has been murdered. I was not informed about her death by the school administration. It was the father of another student, who told me.” The family alleges foul play and demands a CBI probe.
Railway vendors cock a snook at ‘no bill-free food’ rule
Bhopal:MMNN: 23 July 2019
BHOPAL: Mayank Sharma, a telecom company employee, bought some food products at Bhopal station. But he did not get a bill as the vendor did not have a printer. He was told he would get a hand-written bill, but he had
to rush as the train stopped only for a few minutes at Bhopal station.
This is not an isolated case. There are several passengers who purchase food products from the stalls at Bhopal railway station but a reality check suggests
most of the vendors do not provide bills against the purchase as mandated.
After complaints of irregularities including overcharge and sale of sub-standard food products from stalls on platforms, the Bhopal railway division had
implemented the ‘No bill, free food ’ scheme at the state capital stations- Bhopal and Habibganj stations.
The Indian railways' policy for mandatory bill aims to ensure that passengers are not forced to pay more than what they
should.
However, passengers alleged there was no meaning of implementing such a scheme when vendors do not have machines to print the bills. “Due to crowd at the stalls, it is not possible for anyone to wait for hand-made bills as trains
have halts for a limited time.
“In such situation, a passenger will not wait for the bill. This is where the vendor takes advantage of the system,” said Anuj Yadav, a passenger at Bhopal station.
Contrary to the tall claims
by the Indian Railways, illegal food stalls continue to operate at Bhopal railway station. Despite penalty against a dozen illegal vendors, business continues as usual. Passengers have suggested that railways should ensure there are
no illegal vendors at the station.
“If a person is carrying food items on the platform, it won’t be possible to recognize them. Most of the time vendors do not wear any uniform. It is ridiculous to expect that I check his authenticity
first and then buy food items when the train stops for a couple of minutes only,” said Yogita Sinha, another passenger travelling to Mumbai.
While visiting the station, it was noticed that a few unauthorized vendors from hotels
outside the station premises were selling food packets to passengers. Most of the food packets were without any price tag. “Don’t expect that a passenger would stop his journey in Bhopal to complain against such vendors. When they
are selling food items without price tag, it is not possible to ask them for bills,” said Vikas Tiwari, another passenger.
The quality of food being served at stations is another major issue which has not been addressed properly.
“Vendors are selling poor quality food in front of everyone. It is the railways which has to take action. How can a passenger check the food quality?” said another passenger, Vineet Singh.
“A nexus of hawkers and hotels is operating
under which hawkers buy food from hotels and sell it to passengers inside the station,” alleged another passenger. When contacted, senior DCM (Bhopal division), Anurag Pateriya admitted that all vendors at the stations do not have
machines to print the bills. “Such issue is with those vendors selling on hand-carts,” said Pateriya.
BJP president pulls up Pragya Singh Thakur for her toilet remarks
Bhopal:MMNN: 22 July 2019
BJP working president J.P. Nadda on Monday “pulled up” Bhopal MP Pragya Singh Thakur for her remarks that she was not elected to the Lok Sabha for cleaning up toilets, comments that were seen to be mocking Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Swachh Bharat’
campaign.
She was summoned to the BJP headquarters, where Nadda conveyed to her the party leadership’s displeasure with her comments made at Sehore in Madhya Pradesh on Sunday, party sources said.
Thakur
was pulled up and asked to refrain from making statements that go against the party’s programmes and ideology, they said.
The BJP MP declined to speak to reporters as she left the party office.
Addressing a meeting of BJP
workers in Madhya Pradesh, Thakur, an accused in the 2008 Malegaon bomb blast case who is currently out on bail, said the job of an MP is to work with MLAs, corporators and public representatives to ensure development.
“So keep
this in mind... We are not here for cleaning a drain. Is it clear?. We are absolutely not (here) for cleaning your toilets. The work which we are supposed to do and elected for, we will do it honestly. This we had said in the past,
saying it today and stick to it in future as well,” she said.
Thakur had won her maiden election from Bhopal Lok Sabha seat by defeating Congress leader Digvijay Singh.
Her comments were embarrassing for the BJP as Modi
has has made the ‘Swachh Bharat’ (Clean India) programme a centrepiece of his government’s agenda.
But this is not the first time she has left the BJP red-faced.
During the Lok Sabha poll campaign, she had hailed Mahatma Gandhi’s killer Nathuram Godse as a “patriot”.
She was forced to apologise after he comments triggered an outrage, and Modi went on to say that he would not be able to forgive her despite the apology. She was issued a showcause notice as well.
Thakur had also claimed that Maharashtra ATS chief Hemant Karkare was killed in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks due to her “curse” as she was “tortured” by police in custody. Even then she was forced to tender an apology.

give our future a better future.
Chief Minister Shri Nath said that Indian Constitution is unique in the whole world. Many countries have made the Constitution of our country with the help of Dr. Ambedkar, the creator of our
Constitution. Our constitution is such, which gives message of unity in diversity. This feature is the identity of India in the whole world. He said that our culture is to add. Those who believe in sharing the country, they never flourish.

MP police bust adulterated milk production racket; 57 arrested
Bhopal:MMNN: 20 July 2019
BHOPAL: In a major crackdown, the Madhya Pradesh special task force (STF) has busted three factories in two Chambal districts region that was supplying highly toxic synthetic milk to branded packed milk units in five
states in connivance with quality control officers and agents.
Sources in the STF say that food inspectors were hand in gloves with the gang.
As many as 57 people have been arrested from Morena, Bhind districts and 20 tankers,
11 pickup vans and 2275 kg maltodextrin were retrieved. Bhopal and Delhi are among main supply region.
STF SP Rajesh Bhadoria said, "The cost of producing one litre of synthetic milk was Rs 5 and the same was sold for Rs 45 or
Rs 50 in cities like Bhopal and Delhi. They were producing 2 lakh litres of this milk every day and supplying it in Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and other states. The manufacturing units were found to be spread across several acres of
land with hundreds of employees working in 24x7 shifts. Those supplying raw materials to these factories have also been booked."
"We would be pressing charges and each and every individual involved in this scam,” ADG Ashok Awasthi
said.
Not just milk, STF has found huge quantity of the adulterated stuff in paneer samples. Collectors in various districts have been alerted with advisories to collect samples of milk from their respective areas to check adulteration.
Seized liquid is said to be a 'cocktail of milk, white paint and detergent.'
Chemical compounds like detergent and urea were being mixed with milk which sold to known packaging units from where it reached households.
Experts
say it spikes blood sugar level and suppresses the growth of probiotics. The high glycemic index, maltodextrin can prove dangerous for people with diabetes symptoms. Similarly, detergent in milk can cause food poisoning and other gastrointestinal
complications.
The high alkaline level can also damage the body tissues. Other synthetic components mainly detergent, foreign fat, starch, sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), sugar, urea, salt, sodium carbonate, formalin and ammonium sulphate which
the gang was using to produce synthetic milk, can cause impairments and heart problems. The long-term effects are far more serious, it can cause cancer or even death.

The BJP leader's car showroom here, tax evasion of crores
Bhopal:MMNN: 18 July 2019
Jabalpur . In Jabalpur, the Economic Offenses Wing has raided the car showroom of BJP leader Pratik Jain today. The OW has received complaints of crores tax evasion. After which the team arrived on the car showroom
of the BJP leader and carried out the operation today. This action has been done on the car showroom running on the Katni Road near the dark blind by Sagar Infotech Pvt. Ltd.
Explain that EOW complained that there is a large tax
evasion in the back of registration and registration of trains. Based on this information, the EOW team reached this showroom with officers of GST's Vigilance Wing and examined all the documents this morning. In this showroom, Skoda
sold the company's luxury luxury cars as a lower variant. On this basis, on the basis of the registration of RTO, low tax was given. This has resulted in loss of revenue of crores of rupees to the transport department.
This is the whole case
An Inspector posted in Bhopal EOW had received intelligence that Sagar AutoTech Private Limited was giving information to different buyers and RTOs for the trains being sold. By doing so,
he was limiting the revenue of crores of rupees to the transport department. Based on this information, EOW today carried out the raids.
Actually the car dealer used to pay the vehicle to the buyer. The actual price of the car
was told. But when the dealer gave information about the sale of the car to the transport department, its price was actually lower. For this, he makes a different record of the car. He sold a person of Shahdol for the Skoda Kodiak
car for Rs 36 lakhs. But when he sent the vehicle's invoice to the Transport Department, it cost the car at 27 lakhs. In this way, he told the transport department about 9 lakh rupees less of the car and stealing 9 percent of the tax
paid to the Transport Department in the name of selling the car. On the name of this car alone, the dealer dumped the department to 84 thousand rupees. The dealer was playing like this for a long time. In such a way, he would have
taxed the tax department for crores of rupees.

Sikhs tradition of sacrifice unique and remarkable - CM Shri Chouhan
Bhopal:MMNN: Jan. 9, 2017
Chief Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan said that
there is no example found like sacrifice tradition of Sikhs.
Whenever the country faces crisis, Sikhs came forward and sacrificed
their all for mother land. Bharatiya Janata Party national
president Shri Amit Shah said that the renunciation for defencing
the country and struggle against oppression done by Guru Govind
Singh found no precedent and his life would continue to be
a source of inspiration for centuries. The views were expressed
in a programme organised for Govind Singh Ji Maharaj's 350
birth year celebrations.

Ji did the highest sacrifice in fighting against injustice
and oppression. Despite sacrifice of his four sons, Guru Govind
Singh did not deviate from his struggle to protect the nation
and continue it. Shri Chouhan said that whether it is the first
freedom struggle or sacrifice of Bhagat Singh, the sacrifice
tradition of Sikhs continued. Sikhs faced bullets on their
chest from enemies but they did not deviate from their duty.
Shri Chouhan said that the celebrations would be held throughout
the year in Madhya Pradesh. He said that victims of 1984 riots
are left for help, the government is fully committed to provide
relief to them.
BJP national president Shri Amit Shah said that no other
example is found in the history as Guru Govind Singh Ji lived
his life. His personality was really personality of multi-dimension.
He was the greatest prestigious poet of his era. He wrote literature
in many languages. Guru Govind Singh Ji got carried out work
for purification of Brijbhasha. Shri Shah said that the warrior
like Guru Govind Singh perhaps won't born for thousand years.
He said becoming brave is one thing and being sacrificing is
another thing. The country can not forget the work the tenth
Guru Govind Singh started by laying foundation of Khalsa panth
for protection of the country. He worked for unity in the society.
The great Govind Singh's life would be inspiration always.
Sikhs are ahead in sacrifice for the country at the border
since the time of Guru Govind Singh. Khalsa have unique contribution
in the country history. Shri Shah said that decision has been
taken to celebrate 350th birth anniversary in every part of
the country, even in the areas where Sikhs are not living.
Sacrifice of Govind Singh is a source of inspiration for every
Indian.

People
of
State-
Ambassadors
of
Economic
Revolution
-Shivraj
Singh
Chouhan
Bhopal:MMNN: Dec. 30, 2016
India witnessed
a historic
decision
on November
8, 2016.
This day
has given
a meaningful
reply to
the queries
raised
by the
people
at large
on the
style of
functioning
of governments.
Often allegations
are levelled
against
the governments
that they
can not
take tough
decisions
under pressure.
They fear
to take
decisions
that could
harm powerful
people.
Our Prime
Minister
has broken
the myth
with his
courageous
decision
to demonetize
Rs. 500
and Rs.
1000 currency
notes from
November
8, 2016
.
The decision
of demonetization
is historic
in a way
that it
surprised
everyone
and this
is the
distinct
feature
of it.
India had
seen decision
of demonetization
twice in
the history
of 100
years but
these decisions
gave ample
time to
the people
having
black money
in the
form of
currency
to change
it. Thus
the main
objective
of the
decision
was partially
met. This
time, however
the decision
could not
give any
chance
to people
with black
money plan.
Those criticising
the decision
say that
the decision
could be
taken with
better
planning
and people
could be
given ample
time. It
is beyond
my comprehension
as to whom
these critics
are refering
to when
they talk
of giving
time to
people.
Do they
talk of
the poor
people
whose monthly
income
is Rs.
Five or
Ten thousand
and do
not have
currency
notes of
more than
Rs. 5 or
Rs. 10
at a time.
Certainly,
they do
not talk
of such
people
because
such people
having
Rs. 5 or
Rs. 10
notes got
them changed
timely
and were
relaxed.
Then who
are those
about whom
critics
say time
should
have been
given to
them. It
is obvious
that a
section
of critics
is favouring
those who
had black
money in
the form
of currency.
The decision
of the
Prime Minister
for encouraging
cashless
transaction
is a decision
to transform
the country
from a
developing
nation
to a developed
nation.
The critics
should
examine
all the
aspects
before
criticising
such a
decision.
The Congress
and other
political
parties
say that
the demonetization
has wrought
havoc on
farmers
and they
could not
sow in
time. In
Madhya
Pradesh,
this year
already
sowing
has been
done on
105 lakh
hectare
so far
as compared
to a total
of 108
lakh hectare
last year.
The sowing
will further
go up to
115 lakh
hectare.
It is clear
that sowing
has not
been affected.
The so-called
critics
of demonetization
say that
cashless
transaction
is not
possible
in our
country.
The fact
is that
after demonetization,
95 percent
transactions
is cashless
transaction
being done
by farmers,
who are
in their
opinion
illiterate.
This is
a lesson
for them
that a
section
about which
there were
little
expectations
is doing
95 percent
cashless
transactions.
This is
true that
all developed
nations
are heading
towards
maximum
cashless
transactions.
If we want
our economy
to take
off, we
have to
follow
certain
practices
that have
led the
developed
economies
to a success.
All of
us accept
that cashless
transaction
could improve
the economy.
Not a single
economist
in last
one and
half months
has given
logic that
cashless
transaction
is not
good for
the economy.
If we feel
that something
is good
then we
should
come forward
to make
it successful
instead
of obstructing
its success
by criticizing
it. Those
who opine
that cashless
transaction
is not
possible
in this
country,
are challenging
the wisdom
and capacities
of the
120 crore
people
of the
country
without
testing
it. This
is injustice
to the
people.
The last
two months
have witnessed
an impressive
77 percent
increase
through
internet
banking
in the
Central
Bank of
India in
Madhya
Pradesh
alone.
The sale
through
POS machines
has gone
up by 54
percent.
Does this
not indicate
to positive
results?
The people
of our
country
are more
aware and
capable
than certain
critics
make them
out to
be.
Another
benefit
of cashless
transaction
is also
very clearly
perceptible.
In December
the VAT
revenue
has increased
14% whereas
there was
a fall
in revenue
from other
taxes.
This makes
it amply
clear that
the tax
evasion
that took
place in
cash transaction
has reduced
in cashless
transaction.
This will
improve
tax collection
and the
state governments
will be
able to
spend more
on welfare
schemes.
Imparting
training
to the
masses
in cashless
transaction
is need
of the
hour. We
are making
elaborate
arrangements
for this
in Madhya
Pradesh.
In the
days to
come training
programmes
will be
organized
upto panchayat
level to
educate
and train
the people
in the
use of
various
modes of
cashless
transaction.
The endevour
will be
to ensure
total financial
inclusion
by opening
bank accounts
of those
poor families
which have
been left
out under
Pradhan
Mantri
Jan Dhan
Yojana.
About seven
lakh new
bank accounts
have been
opened
and about
five lakh
new RuPay
cards issued
since November
10 last
in the
state.
Madhya
Pradesh
government
has exempted
POS machines
from VAT
and the
stamp duty
payable
on agreement
with banks
to help
small and
medium
traders
to install
these machines.
The state
government
has taken
measures
to ensure
entire
cashless
government
transaction.
The different
departments
have evolved
systems
for online
tax and
duty payment.
The state
government
is making
the different
payments
online
to the
citizens.
The state
government
is committed
to promoting
cashless
economy.
I have
always
believed
that the
people
are wise
enough
to know
what is
in their
interest.
They are
fully aware
that the
Prime Minister's
step of
demonetization
is a masterstroke
against
those indulging
in amassing
black money,
antinational
activities
and circulating
counterfeit
currency
in the
market.
The people
very well
understand
that this
is step
in the
interest
of the
country
and are
extending
wholehearted
support
to promoting
cashless
economy.
This will
definitely
help India
catch up
with the
most developed
nations.

Patwaji
was
a
Great
and
Spirited
Leader
-Shivraj
Singh
Chouhan
Bhopal:MMNN: Dec. 28, 2016
I
first
met
Patwaji
during
by-elections
of
1974.
I
was
deeply
impressed
by
his
brilliance,
dynamism
and
eloquence.
He
was
an
exceptionally
skilled
organizer
and
vibrant
leader.
His
amazing
orational
skill
was
widely
recognized.
In
Vidhansabha
there
used
to
be
pindrop
silence
during
his
speech.
I
came
closer
to
Patwaji
in
1985
when
he
contested
from
Bhojpur
constituency.
We
worked
against
time
and
had
the
privilenge
to
see
him
work
closely.
He
had
tremendous
courage
and
dynamism.
When
he
was
State
BJP
president
he
appointed
me
State
Yuva
Morcha
President.
He
always
inspired
and
motivated
all
to
live
up
to
their
potentials.
He
always
bubbled
with
enthusiasm
of
a
youth.
It
was
only
due
to
hard
work
of
party
workers
and
popularity
of
Patwaji
that
BJP
came
to
power
in
1990.
His
Padyatra
from
Bastar
to
Jhabua
immensely
increased
his
popularity.
During
the
Yatra
he
was
quite
jolly
and
sang
songs
and
poems.
He
never
knew
fatigue.
Patwaji
lived
a
pure
and
wholesome
life.
Even
at
the
age
of
92
he
was
averse
to
being
called
a
Vridha
or
aged.
He
had
a
very
rare
quality
of
encouraging
the
younger
generation.
After
becoming
the
Chief
Minister
I
received
his
valuable
guidance
from
time
to
time.
I
always
met
him
to
seek
his
guidance
in
any
adverse
situation.
Patwaji
had
a
deep
impact
on
my
personal
life
as
well.
I
had
decided
to
remain
a
bachelor,
but
he
inspired
me
to
be
a
householder
and
devote
my
life
to
service
of
society
and
nation.
During
my
tenure
as
Yuva
Morcha
president
the
Ram
Janmbhumi
movement
had
started
at
Ayodhya.
Large
number
of
Rambhaktas
sacrificed
their
lives.
After
this,
former
Prime
Minister
Shri
V.P.
Singh
visited
Bhopal.
We
decided
to
oppose
him.
Patwaji
was
the
Chief
Minister.
The
administration
had
made
fool
proof
security
arrangements,
but
the
Yuva
Morcha
succeeded
in
disrupting
his
visit.
We
showed
black
flags
and
held
agitations.We
were
can-charged.
In
return,
we
pelted
stones.
Shri
V.P.
Singh
staged
a
sit-in
outside
CM
residence.
I
apprehended
that
Patwaji
would
be
very
angry.
But
to
our
pleasant
surprise
Patwaji
came
out
and
told
the
media
that
when
a
large
number
of
Rambhaktas
had
lost
their
lives,
a
small
agitation
and
little
stone
pelting
would
not
bring
down
the
skies.
Patwaji
was
a
truly
even-minded
person.
He
had
equilibrium
of
mind.
When
his
government
was
dissolved
in
1992
following
Ram
Mandir
movement,
he
remained
calm
and
composed.
He
boarded
a
State
Transport
bus
in
the
evening
and
left
for
Indore.
Patwaji
was
always
ready
to
fight
out
for
the
cause
of
public.
He
led
many
agitations
and
protests.
He
observed
a
long
fast
unto
death
protesting
against
the
killing
of
farmers
in
Multai
by
Digvijay
government.
He
led
protests
against
corruption
and
atrocities
of
the
administration
against
farmers
even
at
the
risk
of
his
life.
He
led
an
eight-day-long
fast
unto
death
at
Peer
Gate
Bhopal.
Patwaji
was
a
messiha
of
farmers.
He
waived
off
Rs.
Rs.
714
crore
loans
of
farmers
for
the
first
time
in
the
country.
Patwaji
was
a
strict
administrator.
He
never
gave
in
to
any
goonda
element
and
terror.
He
ruthlessly
eliminated
the
mafia
in
Bombay
bazar
of
Indore
and
also
ruined
the
mafias
in
Bhopal.
Patwaji's
political
courage
is
simply
beyond
comparison.
He
made
a
history
by
defeating
Shri
Kamalnath
in
his
own
constituency
Chhindwara.
Regarding
elections,
he
used
to
say
that
it
is
like
a
trumpet
made
of
carrot.
If
it
does
not
work,
it
can
be
eaten.
There
is
nothing
to
worry
about.
Generally,
during
polling
day
a
candidate
keeps
moving
a
round
but
Patwaji
in
Chhindwara
was
relaxing.
Patwaji
campaigned
for
the
Jansangh
in
such
a
difficult
time
when
it
was
unknown
in
villages.
He
used
to
make
announcement
about
public
meeting
of
Sunderlal
Patwa
inviting
people
to
attend
it
and
in
the
evening
himself
addressed
it.
Patwaji
was
matchless
in
eloquence.
In
the
Assembly,
he
used
to
attack
his
opponents
by
his
sheer
wit
and
satire.
His
logics
used
to
leave
the
opponents
like
Arjun
Singh,
Voraji
and
Digvijay
Singh
speechless.
His
sarcastic
remarks
used
to
work
like
a
sharp
weapon.
For
the
generations
to
come,
Patwaji's
life
would
remain
a
source
of
inspiration.
They
can
learn
how
to
live
a
meaningful
life
for
the
nation
and
the
society.
I
salute
to
the
departed
noble
soul.

Shri

and

CM
Shri

said
that
Narmada
River
is
a
lifeline.
People
residing
on
the
banks
are
brought
up
in
the
lap
of
Narmada
River.
Over
30
percent
people
of
the
state
are
satisfying
their
thirst
with
the
water
of
Narmada.
The
Narmada
River
has
given
water,
life,
fruits,
flowers,
vegetables
and
several
other
natural
resources
beside
electricity
and
we
have
felled
trees
on
the
banks
of
Narmada
and
destroyed
the
forest.
These
trees
used
to
provide
water
to
Narmada
River
but
we
have
reduced
the
water
level
and
have
stopped
the
water
flow
of
the
rivers.
If
Narmada
flow
stops,
Madhya
Pradesh
will
not
be
secured.
With
an
objective
to
conserve
Narmada
River,
the
'Namami
Devi
Narmade'
seva
yatra
is
being
organized.
Plantation
will
be
undertaken
on
government,
forest
and
private
land
of
farmers
on
both
the
banks
of
River
Narmada
which
will
protect
soil
erosion.
He
said
that
farmers
should
undertake
fruits
plantation
on
their
agriculture
lands.
Provision
has
been
made
to
provide
Rs.
20
thousand
annual
compensation
per
hectare
till
trees
bear
fruits.
Farmers
can
take
other
agriculture
crops
during
the
period
till
trees
bear
fruits.
Also
remuneration
will
be
paid
to
the
farmers
for
undertaking
plantation.
Plantation
on
both
the
banks
of
the
River
Narmada
is
the
aim
of
the
yatra.
Shri
Chouhan
informed
that
6,376
farmers
have
taken
pledge
to
undertake
plantation
till
today
in
Mandla
district.
Shri
Chouhan
mentioned
that
when
Narmada
Yatra
scheme
was
formulated,
it
came
to
the
mind
that
who
will
conduct
this
campaign?
Then
Jan
Abhiyan
Parishad
and
Sadhu
Sants
have
assured
the
beginning
of
yatra
and
now
after
a
short
period
of
10
days
a
large
group
of
people
are
with
yatra.
Now
society
has
taken
control
over
the
yatra
which
was
begun
by
the
state
government.
Giving
message
to
protect
girl
child,
Shri
Chouhan
said
that
mothers
still
send
their
daughters
not
sons
to
fetch
water
from
hand
pumps.
He
said
that
pipeline
will
be
laid
by
the
state
government
to
supply
water
in
the
areas
located
on
the
banks
of
river
Narmada.
Suggesting
people
not
to
discriminate
between
boy
and
a
girl,
Shri
Chouhan
said
how
will
you
get
daughter
in
law
if
you
will
protect
daughter.
Balance
is
must
and
imbalance
will
destroy
the
universe.
The
state
government
is
providing
facilities
since
birth
of
a
girl
child
till
her
marriage.
Now
women
will
be
recruited
on
33
percent
posts

Bhopal:MMNN: Dec. 10, 2016
Biggest
and
first

programme
of

Chief

Shri

claim
worth
Rs.
4416
crore
to
20
lakh
46
thousand
farmers
of
the
state
from
Ujjain
district.
It
may
be
highlighted
that
Madhya
Pradesh
is
the
first
state
in
the
country
where
such
a
big
crop
insurance
claim
will
be
distributed
among
the
farmers.
It
is
also
a
coincidence
that
the
Prime
Minister
Shri
Narendra
Modi
had
announced
Prime
Minister
Crop
Insurance
scheme
at
Sherpur
of
district
Sehore
during
the
Farmers'
Grand
Convention
held
on
February
18,
2016.
This
has
become
possible
due
to
the
sensitivity
towards
the
farmers,
effective
implementation
of
the
crop
insurance
scheme
and
promptness
of
the
Chief
Minister
Shri
Chouhan.
Minister
for

Welfare
and

Development
Shri
Gourishankar

informed
that
farmers
who

Crop
in
the
year
2015
due
to
natural

are
being
benefited
under
the
Prime
Minister
Crop
Insurance
Scheme
first
in
the
country.
He
further
informed
that
the
Chief
Minister
Shri
Chouhan
had
distributed
Rs.
4600
crore
relief
amount
against
the
loss
to
Kharif
Crop
2015
earlier
from
the
disaster
fund.
Therefore
farmers
will
receive
over
Rs.
9
thousand
crore
compensation
amount
against
their
losses.
Beside
this,
Madhya
Pradesh
was
the
second
state
of
the
country
which
had
distributed
huge
amount
of
Rs.
2187
crore
to
14
lakh
farmers
against
the
damage
to
Kharif
Crop-2013.
Chief
Minister
Shri
Chouhan
was
with
the
farmers
during
the
natural
calamity
of
2015.
He
not
only
toured
36
districts
of
the
state
but
inspected
the
damage,
consoled
the
farmers
and
now
he
has
fulfilled
his
commitment.
Moreover
Shri

informed
that
the
crop
insurance
claim
distribution
will
take
place
in
all
the
51
districts
of

Camps
will
be
held

the

have
glorious
history.
Whatever

it
was
given,
was
accomplished
successfully
by
the
state
police.
No
listed
dacoit
gang
is
in
the
state
now.
Naxalism
is
under
control
and
network
of
SIMI
has
been
destroyed.
He
said
police
should
have
live
contact
with
public
and
public
representatives.
Efforts
should
be
made
for
rigorous
and
fast
punishment
to
accused
in
crimes
related
to
women.
Strict
vigilance
should
be
maintained
over
anti-social
elements.
Shri
Chouhan
said
there
should
be
feeling
of
safety
in
common
people
and
fear
in
criminals.
For
this,
police
should
be
seen
in
the
field
and
quick
response
is
necessary.
Dial-100
scheme
yielded
a
good
result
in
this
regard.
Now,
efforts
should
be
made
to
make
it
better.
Drive
should
be
launched
against
goons,
betting
people
and
mafia.
Impression
of
working
should
be
such
that
people
can
recall
them.
