Under the ongoing state-wide Sushasan Tihar, Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai made a surprise landing by helicopter today in the village of Dokra in Jashpur district and participated in the ‘Samadhan Shivir’ (Grievance Redressal Camp) organised there. On this occasion, Chief Minister Shri Sai announced the opening of a college and a mini-stadium in Dokra.
He also declared the upgradation of the Primary Health Centre and the Vanvasi Kalyan Ashram in the village, along with the beautification of the Doryamunda Reservoir. Additionally, he sanctioned Rs 20 lakh for the renovation of the community function hall and approved the restoration of the Shiv Temple premises.
Addressing the camp, Chief Minister Shri Sai stated that through the Sushasan Tihar, the government is reaching out to villages across the state. He assured that all beneficiaries whose names are included in the survey list under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) will be sanctioned housing units. He added that in the past one and a half years, the state government has fulfilled the majority of the guarantees made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
