Zee Madhya Pradesh-Chhattisgarh (Zee MPCG), the region’s No.1 channel , organised the landmark initiative ‘Building New India’ conclave to celebrate the completion of Dr. Mohan Yadav’s first year as Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh. This high-profile event brought together distinguished leaders, including Chief Guest Dr. Mohan Yadav and Guest of Honour Mr. Kailash Vijayvargiya, to showcase the state government’s achievements, challenges, and ambitious vision for the future. Dr. Yadav and his ministers presented a detailed report card highlighting the government’s progress in pivotal sectors, including health, education, water management, and tourism.
Addressing the gathering, Dr. Mohan Yadav spotlighted several transformative initiatives that defined his inaugural year in office. He announced the merger of the medical education and health ministries to streamline administration and enhance efficiency. This decision has already led to the inauguration of three new government medical colleges, with 14 more planned under the PPP model and eight under construction, promising a significant boost to healthcare infrastructure and medical education. On the critical issue of water management, the Chief Minister celebrated the resolution of a decades-old water dispute with Rajasthan, made possible through a historic MoU. Additionally, he highlighted the ambitious Ken-Betwa river interlinking project, which is set to irrigate 10 lakh hectares, supply drinking water to over 40 lakh people across 2,000+ villages, and transform Bundelkhand into a flourishing region akin to Punjab and Haryana.
Tourism also emerged as another focal point, with Dr. Yadav unveiling plans to leverage Madhya Pradesh’s rich heritage and natural attractions as engines of economic growth. By prioritizing tourism, the state aims to create employment, foster cultural appreciation, and stimulate sustainable development.
