Through Chintan Shivir, Chhattisgarh will gain valuable advantages that will help in improving state's economy: CM Vishnu Deo Sai
Raipur (Chhattisgarh) [India], June 6 (ANI): Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai, along with Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Sharma on Sunday participated in a 2-day training camp organised at the IIM Raipur campus. The Chief Minister said that through this Chintan Shivir, the state will gain valuable advantages that will help in improving the economy. CM Vishnu Deo Sai said, 'We did this programme last year as well, and experts from across the nation came and shared their insights. We witnessed that Chhattisgarh benefited from all those ideas. We believe that this year too, through this Chintan Shivir, Chhattisgarh will gain valuable advantages that will help in improving the state's economy.' A unique initiative, Chintan Shivir 2.0, commenced on Sunday at the IIM Raipur campus. This marks a significant step in Chhattisgarh's journey towards contributing to the vision of Viksit Bharat 2047. According to a press statement, this is no ordinary government meeting. It is a thoughtful platform where all state ministers come together to share their experiences, lessons learned, and stories from the field. The two-day retreat, held under the leadership of Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai, is exclusively designed for ministers to reflect on their journey of the past one and a half years and to chart out a collective path for the future. The primary objective of this shivir is not just to review past work but to define Chhattisgarh's clear and impactful role in making a developed India by 2047. Each minister will present the innovations undertaken in their department, lessons learned through public service, and their roadmap ahead. Special sessions focusing on the core themes of Seva (Service), Sankalp (Resolve), and Seekh (Learning) are also part of the program. Renowned experts from across the country are delivering lectures on key topics such as good governance, transparency, digital administration, public service ethos, cultural consciousness, and nation-building. The Shivir is structured like a learning workshop where each minister is actively engaged in upgrading their vision and capacity. As per the statement, one of the key highlights is a dedicated session on the theme 'From Good Governance to Elections,' which will focus on policy transparency, accountability, and decisions made in the public interest. Additionally, the Chief Minister will share insights and guidance received during his recent meetings with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Delhi, to ensure greater alignment between the central and state government strategies.

Chhattisgarh unveils Rs 49,000 crore irrigation & hydropower push in Bastar as anti-Naxal ops clear path
Chhattisgarh has proposed ₹49,000 crore mega irrigation and hydropower projects in Bastar as anti-Naxal operations advance across Left-Wing Extremism-affected districts. About 45 years after the Godavari Water Disputes Tribunal Award allocated 301 TMC of water from the Indravati River to Chhattisgarh (then part of Madhya Pradesh), the state has proposed two projects - construction of the Bodhghat dam and interlinking the Indravati and Mahanadi rivers. Despite being allocated 301 TMC of water from the Indravati, the state currently utilises only 25 TMC. The Bodhghat project proposes to use 96.27 TMC. Due to Naxal activity, no dam or related infrastructure could be implemented in Bastar. Of the 8.15 lakh hectares of crop area, irrigation facilities currently exist for only around 1.36 lakh hectares. With anti-Naxal operations now in full swing in Chhattisgarh, the state government has proposed construction of the ₹29,000 crore Bodhghat dam and the ₹20,000 crore interlinking project. According to the proposal, this will provide irrigation facilities for 7 lakh hectares of land. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 7 Mistakes People With $1M+ Make When Hiring Financial Advisors SmartAsset Learn More Undo The two projects will span Naxal-affected districts including Mungeli, Rajnandgaon, Kawardha, Dantewada, Sukma, Bijapur, Kanker, and Narayanpur. According to sources, Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai met Prime Minister Narendra Modi last week and urged that the two projects be granted "national status". This would ensure central funding. In a letter to the Prime Minister, reviewed by ET, Sai stated, "Given the high cost of the project, it is extremely difficult for the state to implement it with its own resources. Therefore, it is requested that these projects be declared as National Projects, so that their implementation can be ensured for the development of Bastar." In addition to irrigation, the Bodhghat multipurpose project is expected to generate 125 MW of electricity and produce 4,824 tonnes of fish annually. It will also supply water for drinking and industrial use. As per the state's proposal, 269 villages will benefit directly. However, there are significant challenges to implementation, including 10,440 hectares of land to be fully submerged, 28 villages to be entirely affected, and 14 to be partially affected. The Indravati-Mahanadi interlinking project will also require clearances from the Central Water Commission and the Ministries of Environment and Tribal Affairs. Live Events
