Yadav expressed satisfaction over development being made in the field of education in the state. He noted that two Sandipani schools (earlier known as CM Rise school) from Madhya Pradesh have been recognised on the global stage: Vinoba CM Rise School of Ratlam was declared the winner in the 'Innovation' category of the World's Best School Prize 2024, and the CM Rise Higher Secondary School in Jhabua was selected in the "Supporting Healthy Life" category.
The London-based T4 Education organisation ranked these schools among the world's best. He added that government school students have outperformed private school students in this year's Class 10 and 12 board exams.
Chief minister Yadav paid tribute to Rani Durgavati of the Gondwana community, highlighting her valor and administrative acumen. He recalled how she fought 52 battles and defeated enemies with courage and strategic water conservation efforts.
Yadav further said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi the state is working to realise the late prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee's dream of interlinking rivers. Currently, three such river-linking projects are underway in Madhya Pradesh. He emphasised that the government is organising 'Kisan Melas' (farmer fairs) to help double farmers' incomes. A three-day agricultural and industrial fair was recently held in Narsinghpur district to promote advanced farming techniques, new technologies, and expert guidance.
The CM said that the state govt is conducting the 'Jal Ganga Samvardhan Abhiyan' (Water Conservation Campaign) with the goal of constructing 75,000 farm ponds over three months. So far, 70,000 ponds have already been built in just two and a half months. He also announced that the 'Ladli Behna Yojana' amount will be increased on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan, with the target to gradually raise the monthly assistance to Rs.3,000 over five years.
CM Yadav mentioned that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will complete 11 years in office on 9 June. To mark this occasion, the state's achievements in women empowerment, youth development, poverty alleviation, and agriculture will be shared with the public. He also highlighted the importance of the newly inaugurated railway bridge over the Chinour river by Prime Minister Modi.
Minister of state for technical education, skill development and employment, Gautam Tetwal, spoke on the department's achievements.
He noted that the Kundam ITI, which began in 2022 with 49 students, now has a new building, hostels for boys and girls and staff quarters constructed at a cost of Rs12.63 crore. The new facilities will support the youth of the region in skill development and career advancement.
