PM to visit Madhya Pradesh on 11th February

Narendra Modi will visit Madhya Pradesh on 11th February, 2024. At around 12:40 PM, he will dedicate to the nation and lay the foundation stone of multiple development projects worth about 7500 crores in Jhabua, Madhya Pradesh.

The vision of Antyodaya has been a guiding light for the initiatives taken by the Prime Minister. One of the key focus areas has been ensuring that benefits of development reach out to the tribal community, major sections of which were not able to gain these benefits even several decades after independence. In line with this, Prime Minister will dedicate and lay the foundation stone of multiple initiatives that will benefit the significant tribal population of the region.

Prime Minister will disburse monthly instalment of Aahar Anudan under Aahar Anudan Yojna to about two lakh women beneficiaries. Under this scheme, Rs 1500 per month is provided for nutritious food to women of various specially backward tribes of Madhya Pradesh.

Prime Minister will distribute 1.75 lakh adhikar abhilekh (record of rights) to beneficiaries of SVAMITVA Scheme. This will provide documentary evidence to people for the right to their land.

Prime Minister will lay the foundation stone of Tantya Mama Bhil University - a dedicated University which will cater to the youth from districts with high tribal concentration in the region. To be developed at a cost of Rs 170 crore, the University will provide world class infrastructure for holistic development of students.

Prime Minister will also transfer Rs. 55.9 crores for 559 villages under Pradhan Mantri Adarsh Gram Yojana. This amount will be utilised for various kinds of construction activities including  Anganwadi Bhawans, Fair Price Shops, Health Centres, additional rooms in schools, internal roads, among others.
