Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, who attended the inauguration from Mandsaur, said PM Modi has given a significant Diwali gift to Madhya Pradesh benefiting Neemuch, Mandsaur and Seoni districts.

On this occasion, the state government has organised the main event in Mandsaur where PM Modi transferred Rs 1,624 crore into the accounts of over 81 lakh farmers across the state under the Chief Minister Kisan Kalyan Yojana.

CM Yadav said under PM Modi’s leadership, Madhya Pradesh was advancing toward comprehensive development.

Once considered a “sick state”, Madhya Pradesh has joined the ranks of developed states, he said.

“Today, the state was witnessing accelerated progress across every sector. Significant strides were being made in good governance and across the industrial sector, education, higher education, employment, health, agriculture, self-employment and more,” CM Yadav said.

He highlighted the government’s commitment to establishing medical colleges in every district in the future, in line with the current pace of new medical colleges being launched across the state.
