MP: Vikramaditya Gate to be built on Bhopal-Indore State Highway; CM Dr. Mohan Yadav performs groundbreaking ceremony
Bhopal: A grand Vikramaditya Gate will be built on the Bhopal-Indore State Highway. Madhya Pradesh CM Dr. Mohan Yadav performed the groundbreaking ceremony for the gate and an e-bus depot at a program held on Saturday at the government school premises in Fanda, Huzur constituency. During the event, he also announced that Fanda would be renamed Harihar Nagar.
During his address, he advised people against wasting money on 'Mrityu Bhoj' and in lavish feasts in weddings. Giving his own example, he said that he had his son's wedding at a mass marriage ceremony. He said that Prime Minister Modi says "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas" (Together with all, development for all), but this won't happen just by saying it; we have to demonstrate it through our actions.
Addressing the gathering, the CM advised people to have their children's weddings at mass marriage ceremonies. He said, "Minister Chaitanya Kashyap is sitting among us; he is a man worth over a thousand crore rupees, but he also had his children's weddings with only 100-50 people as guests. My son and daughter-in-law are also doctors. But at the ceremony where they got married, there were children from all sections of society. We must avoid ostentation and spend money on education."
Welcome gates to be built in the names of Raja Bhoj, Shri Ram and Shri Krishna
CM Dr. Mohan Yadav said that with the efforts of the state government, the Bhopal region will develop as a prime example of heritage and development. Nine welcome gates are being constructed in Bhopal, the capital city, reflecting the glorious past and rich culture of Madhya Pradesh. Grand welcome gates will also be built in Bhopal in the names of Raja Bhoj, the illustrious ruler of the Parmar dynasty, Emperor Vikramaditya, Shri Ram, and Shri Krishna. The state's cultural heritage has been integrated with modern urban development.
The Upper Lake will be deepened
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that under the Jal Ganga Samvardhan Abhiyan, the Upper Lake will be deepened by removing silt, which will solve the problem of water-logging in the fields. Dr. Yadav said that necessary action will be taken on the proposal to rename the village of Fanda to Harihar Nagar, based on regional demand.
CM Dr. Yadav announced a grant of Rs 5 crore for a school building in Tumra village of Huzur assembly constituency and also announced the construction of a college building in Fanda village.
Speaking at the event, Minister for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises and Minister in charge of Bhopal district, Chaitanya Kumar Kashyap, MLA Rameshwar Sharma, and Mayor Malti Rai stated that Bhopal has received 100 electric buses with the support of the central and state governments. A charging station is also being constructed at a cost of Rs 16 crore for their smooth operation.
