The projects are expected to strengthen roads, irrigation, drinking water supply, education and healthcare facilities across the district.<\/p>\n<p>Sai said the holistic development of villages and the welfare of the poor, farmers, labourers, women and youth remained the government&#8217;s top priorities. He said the state was working towards the vision of Viksit Bharat by ensuring that the benefits of development reached every section of society.<\/p>\n<p>He announced the construction of a college building and a Panchayat Bhavan in Kanteli, a Freedom Fighter Memorial Garden in Devri village, and the repair and construction of the road connecting Kodwa and Khurshi.<\/p>\n<h3>Road and water infrastructure receives major push<\/h3>\n<p>The Chief Minister said foundation stones were laid for 25 road development projects estimated to cost around \u20b9143 crore. These roads are expected to improve connectivity between rural and urban areas and facilitate the movement of farmers, students, traders and other residents.<\/p>\n<p>A drinking water supply project costing more than \u20b9203 crore has also been initiated under Amrut Mission 2.0. In addition, 11 projects of the Water Resources Department, worth over \u20b940 crore, were inaugurated to expand irrigation facilities.<\/p>\n<p>Sai said improved irrigation infrastructure would reduce farmers&#8217; dependence on rainfall and create better opportunities for cultivating Rabi and other seasonal crops, besides Kharif crops. This, he added, would encourage crop diversification and strengthen the rural economy.<\/p>\n<h3>Paddy procurement to begin on November 15<\/h3>\n<p>Reiterating the government&#8217;s commitment to farmers&#8217; welfare, Sai said paddy procurement at \u20b93,100 per quintal would begin across Chhattisgarh on November 15. Procurement would be allowed up to 21 quintals per acre.<\/p>\n<p>The state has established 360 additional procurement centres this year, taking the total to approximately 3,100. He said arrangements had been made to ensure a transparent and farmer-friendly procurement process, with timely payments to farmers.<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Minister also announced that eligible farmers would receive input assistance of \u20b913,839 per acre under the Krishak Unnati Yojana. He clarified that farmers would not have to sell their entire eligible quantity of paddy to receive the assistance. Those selling less than the prescribed quantity would also be eligible for assistance based on their verified landholding and applicable eligibility criteria.<a href=\"https:\/\/thefrontpage24.com\/?attachment_id=10831\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-10831\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-10831\" src=\"https:\/\/thefrontpage24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/96d5eef5-6759-4a5a-9ec7-8ed63beef6e6-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"715\" height=\"476\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thefrontpage24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/96d5eef5-6759-4a5a-9ec7-8ed63beef6e6-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/thefrontpage24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/96d5eef5-6759-4a5a-9ec7-8ed63beef6e6-450x300.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/thefrontpage24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/96d5eef5-6759-4a5a-9ec7-8ed63beef6e6-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/thefrontpage24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/96d5eef5-6759-4a5a-9ec7-8ed63beef6e6.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 715px) 100vw, 715px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>68 lakh women receive monthly assistance<\/h3>\n<p>Highlighting the government&#8217;s welfare initiatives, Sai said approximately 68 lakh women were receiving \u20b91,000 per month under the Mahtari Vandan Yojana. A total of \u20b921,340 crore has been transferred to beneficiaries through 33 instalments, he said, adding that the scheme was helping strengthen women&#8217;s financial independence.<\/p>\n<p>He also referred to the Shri Ramlala Darshan Yojana, under which devotees, particularly senior citizens, are being provided an opportunity to visit Ayodhya. He said the scheme reflected Chhattisgarh&#8217;s cultural and emotional connection with Lord Ram.<\/p>\n<h3>Helpline and digital services to improve governance<\/h3>\n<p>Sai said the Chief Minister&#8217;s Helpline, 1076, had been introduced to enable citizens to register grievances and obtain time-bound resolutions without making repeated visits to government offices.<\/p>\n<p>He also highlighted the Seva Setu portal, through which people can access certificates and other government services from home. The government is working to extend digital services to all Gram Panchayats through Atal Digital Seva Kendras, reducing the need for rural residents to travel to distant offices.<\/p>\n<p>Referring to the Pradhan Mantri Surya Ghar Yojana, he said subsidies were being provided to eligible households for rooftop solar installations, helping reduce electricity expenses and promote clean energy.<\/p>\n<h3>Leaders underline Mungeli&#8217;s development prospects<\/h3>\n<p>Union Minister of State Tokhan Sahu congratulated the people of Mungeli on the development projects worth more than \u20b9465 crore, saying they would improve basic amenities and accelerate regional development.<\/p>\n<p>Deputy Chief Minister Arun Sao said infrastructure development in Mungeli had gained momentum under the leadership of Chief Minister Sai.
