Raipur . The winter session of the Chhattisgarh Legislative Assembly commenced on December 14th, marking the 25th anniversary of its establishment. On this occasion, a special discussion was held on the Anjor Vision Document 2047, in which Pandaria MLA Bhavna Bohra participated, presenting several important topics before the House. During this discussion, she highlighted the long-awaited demands of the Pandaria Assembly constituency and its surrounding forest areas, and stated that district-level facilities should be expanded to every village and block, which will boost the state's rural development and economy.

Bhavna Bohra said, "Today we are all witnessing a historic moment that will be etched in our state's parliamentary history for centuries to come. Today, December 14th, marks the conclusion of our Legislative Assembly's silver jubilee year, and we are celebrating its foundation day. The first session in the new Assembly building on this occasion marks a new beginning, a new call, and new energy." This first day of the winter session is historic in itself, and under your chairmanship, the theme chosen for this day will not only ensure the direction and pace of Chhattisgarh in the coming decades, but also present a vision of a new and vibrant Chhattisgarh. Today, as we sit in this august House and discuss Vision 2047, I want to remember Atal Bihari Vajpayee, who rose above party politics and took a decision that was based not on political gain but on respect for public sentiment. I salute Atal Bihari Vajpayee, the creator of this state, and every voice dedicated to the creation of Chhattisgarh. Thanks to whose vision, we now exist as a separate state, capable of enacting our own legislation.

Bhavna Bohra said that when we became a new state in 2000, the situation in the state was extremely challenging. There were deaths due to hunger, migration, and the image of a sick state prevailed. There was no education, no health, no security, no roads. There was darkness, fear, violence, and chaos everywhere. However, under the leadership of former Chief Minister and Assembly Speaker Dr. Raman Singh, when the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government ruled the state for 15 years, Chhattisgarh moved from darkness to light and from sickness to development. During these 15 years of good governance, Chhattisgarh experienced rapid development. Interest-free loans were provided to farmers, crop yields increased unprecedentedly, and paddy procurement increased from 5 lakh metric tons to 70 lakh metric tons. A scheme was implemented to provide rice at Rs. 1 per kg to 5.8 lakh poor families, ensuring food reached every poor person's plate. By passing the Right to Food Bill, Chhattisgarh became the first state in the country to give the right to food to every poor person. The power generation capacity was increased from 4,732 MW to 22,768 MW and Chhattisgarh became the first state in the country with 'zero power cut'.

He further stated that over 40,000 schools, numerous colleges, and 10 medical colleges were built in the state. National institutions like NIT, IIT, IIIT, IIM, HNLU, and AIIMS were established. The state budget increased from ₹9,270 crore to ₹94,775 crore. A DRG battalion was formed to recruit 100,000 soldiers to combat Naxalism, and the DMF was established in 2015 for the development of mineral-rich districts. At the Rajyotsav program, our illustrious Prime Minister Narendra Modi also described this decade and a half of contribution as a remarkable achievement, a moment of pride for all of us. Today, we are 25 years old in young Chhattisgarh. This is an opportunity to build the future. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Sai, our young Chhattisgarh has documented its future policy. 'Chhattisgarh Anjor Vision 2047' is not just a book, but a pre-written treatise on the coming golden era of Chhattisgarh.
