Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that the State Government will arrange education for the deprived and poor children to develop Madhya Pradesh into a completely literate State. He was addressing a function organised under “Aao Banayen Apna Madhya Pradesh” and “School Chalen Ham Abhiyan” in Shivpuri on Wednesday.
Public Health Engineering Minister Kusum Mehdele and MP Anup Mishra were present on the occasion.
Chouhan said that no child should remain out of the school. The society has to play an important role in this, besides the Government. ‘School Chalen Ham Abhiyan’ has been launched to remove this hurdle so that Madhya Pradesh becomes an educated State, he said.
He said that the Government will arrange lodging, food, education and uniform for poor children. He exhorted the children to study with concentration, become important persons and brighten the name of their family and State.
Chouhan informed that education in the State is being provided free from Class I to XII. Besides, loans through banks are also being provided on State Government’s guarantee to students for pursuing higher education.
The Chief Minister inaugurated and laid the foundation stones of 692 works costing Rs 294 crore 22 lakh in Shivpuri district.

The Chief Minister said that no negligence will be tolerated in the implementation of Government schemes.
Strict action will be taken against the guilty.
