Chief Minister Kamal Nath has said that for the better future of the state, we will develop a new map of development. There will be assured efforts to provide jobs to the youth along with agricultural development in this. He said that in 57 days, while the new government has waived the loan of farmers to empower the agriculture sector, we are launching the Mukhya Mantri Yuva Swabhiman Yojana for the unemployed youth.
Nath was distributing certificates of 100-days employment to young beneficiaries under the country’s first Mukhya Mantri Yuva Swabhiman Yojana at Motilal Nehru Stadium on Friday. On this occasion, In charge of Bhopal district and Cooperatives and General Administration Minister Govind Singh, Mayor Alok Sharma was present.
Nath said that the biggest challenge before us is to make extensive reforms in the agriculture sector. The foundation of our economy is farming. If we cannot give farmers a fair price for their produce, then we cannot improve our economy. If farmers do not have purchasing power then it will have an adverse impact on our other business activities and the development of the state will be disrupted. We are going to start the loan waiver from today to empower farmers.
Nath said that the new government has started well planned efforts to fulfill promises made in the manifesto. After loan waiver, we are starting the 'Yuva Swabhiman Yojana' from today.
The government has increased pension Rs from 300 to Rs 600. We assure the citizens of the state that we will fulfill our promises in the manifesto in the next five years. We will not let them down.
Public Relations and Law-Legal Affairs Minister PC Sharma said that the Chief Minister Nath has fulfilled 26 promises in 52 days soon after taking charge. Yuva Swabhiman Yojana is the first scheme in the whole country which has been introduced to give jobs to the unemployed. No youth of the state should remain unemployed is the only commitment of the government. He said that the Chief Minister took part in a round table conference with industrialists recently, started air services to boost investment in Madhya Pradesh. His steps will take the state towards development speedily.
Urban Development and Housing Minister Jaivardhan Singh said that apart from empowering the unemployed, the country's first Mukhya Mantri Yuva Swabhiman Yojana will prove to be a milestone by providing them financial support in 100 days.
