Raipur : Demonstrating the state government's commitment to the welfare of residents in remote areas, Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai distributed solar home lighting systems to 50 students from small hamlets in Konta block of Sukma district. The distribution took place at the Swami Vivekananda Airport premises in Raipur on Thursday, aiming to empower these children and pave the way for their brighter future.
Addressing the students, Chief Minister Shri Sai stressed the government's dedication to ensuring a bright future for children. He stated, "It is the effort of our government to ensure that the future of children is bright. Chhattisgarh Government is committed to providing all facilities to the citizens of the tribal-dominated Bastar region and its inclusive development. In keeping with this spirit, we have launched Niyad Nella Naar – Apka Accha Gaon Yojana, aiming to ensure that the benefits of welfare schemes reach tribal communities."
Chief Minister Shri Sai highlighted the government's goal of providing essential amenities including roads, electricity, water, housing, and healthcare facilities in Bastar. Stressing the importance of education and accessibility to government schemes for tribal communities' development he stated "There should be well-equipped schools for children's education.

The development of the Bastar region is important for building a 'Viksit Chhattisgarh'."
