- Electricity will reach remote and tribal areas at a cost of Rs 11.62 crore.
Under the leadership of Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Dev Sai, the state government is prioritizing the expansion of basic amenities in rural and tribal areas. In this direction, thanks to the special efforts of Women and Child Development and Social Welfare Minister and Bhatgaon Assembly MLA, Smt. Laxmi Rajwade, electricity expansion work has been approved in 97 villages of the Bhatgaon Assembly constituency under the “Dharti Aaba Tribal Village Elevation Campaign.”
Through this project, approved at a cost of approximately Rs 11.62 crore, electricity facility will be provided to remote villages and localities of Surajpur district, which will benefit thousands of rural families.
According to the information received from the state government, in the approved works, electricity will be extended to about 109 mohallas/pars of 36 villages of development block Bhaiyathan, about 68 mohallas/pars of 32 villages of development block Odgi and about 53 mohallas/pars of 29 villages of development block Surajpur.
This project is considered particularly important for rural and tribal settlements that previously lacked adequate electricity. Access to electricity will enhance children’s education, household chores, drinking water, agriculture-based activities, and rural self-employment.
Minister Mrs. Laxmi Rajwade said that the state government’s goal is to bring the light of development to every mile. Expressing gratitude to Chief Minister Mr. Vishnu Dev Sai, she said that this approval will give new impetus to the social and economic development of the Bhatgaon Assembly constituency.
