The city of Bhubaneswar in Odisha was bustling with excitement as Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi took center stage on Saturday. With a proud smile on his face, he launched a whopping 481 developmental projects worth an impressive Rs 1,151 crore that would benefit different districts in the state.
The event was organized to commemorate local self-governance day, and Majhi made sure to take this opportunity to address the importance of self-governance. He stressed on the crucial role it plays in providing basic facilities to citizens and urged elected public representatives to put aside political differences and work towards meeting the expectations of the people.
As a gesture of appreciation and support, the chief minister also handed out appointment letters to 27 newly recruited municipal service officers. He emphasized the responsibility of elected representatives in shouldering the burden of Panchayati Raj and the existing self-governance system in urban areas.
Majhi's message to all elected public representatives, including councillors, vice-chairpersons, and chairpersons of urban local bodies, was clear - rise above politics and join hands with the municipal administration to fulfill the needs of the people. He also stressed the need for decentralization and empowerment of municipalities to effectively plan and provide services for urban infrastructure.
Acknowledging the rapid urbanization in Bhubaneswar, the chief minister recognized the challenges in providing basic facilities to its residents. However, he reassured the public that his government is fully committed to developing all cities in Odisha, including Bhubaneswar. The event was a true reflection of the government's dedication towards the betterment of its people and the state as a whole.
