Emphasis on departmental coordination, data-driven policy making and effective implementation to achieve the goals of Anjor Vision-2047

Innovative efforts will be made to make Bastar the most developed tribal division of the country through Bastar Anjor.

Raipur, Chhattisgarh State Policy Commission Vice Chairman Shri Ganesh Shankar Mishra said that the state government under the leadership of Chief Minister Shri Vishnudev Sai is committed to establishing Chhattisgarh at the forefront of developed states through "Anjor Vision-2047." He said that building a developed Chhattisgarh will be possible not only through the formulation of plans, but also through better coordination between departments, policy making based on accurate data and a result-oriented work culture.

Addressing the induction programme of State Support Mission (SSM), Project Implementation Unit (PIU) and Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) units organised at Chhattisgarh State NITI Aayog, Nava Raipur, Shri Mishra said that "Anjor Vision-2047" prepared by the State NITI Aayog is a comprehensive roadmap for the long-term development of the state, in which clear goals related to economic development, good governance, social progress, investment promotion and human development have been set.

He stated that the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Anjor Vision 2047 complement each other, and the fundamental objective of both is to ensure that the benefits of development reach the last person. To achieve the goal of becoming a developed state by 2047, all departments must implement their plans and programs in accordance with these goals. The SSM, PIU, and M&E units established under the State Policy Commission will play a crucial role in this direction.

Mr. Mishra stated that Chhattisgarh has made significant progress in the NITI Aayog's SDG India Index 2023-24. The state's goal now is not limited to improving the indices, but to bring positive and lasting change to the living standards of every citizen. Citing targets set in sectors such as agriculture, health, education, industry, women's empowerment, skill development, and technology, he said, "Our priority is to make Chhattisgarh a national leader in agricultural productivity, industrial development, female labor force participation, the digital economy, and employment generation."

He said that the expert teams working with the State Policy Commission should coordinate with departments to accelerate the pace of development through KPI-based reviews, policy analysis, monitoring and evaluation, and evidence-based recommendations. He called on officials and experts to adopt innovative, accountable, and results-oriented approaches.

Vice President Shri Mishra expressed confidence that with the joint efforts of the State Government, United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and State Policy Commission, the goals of Anjor Vision-2047 will be achieved within the stipulated time period and Chhattisgarh will establish a new identity as an inclusive, sustainable and developed state.

He said that March 31, 2026, marked a significant milestone in the state's history, when Chhattisgarh became free from Naxalism. He cited Union Home Minister Amit Shah's pledge to make Bastar the most developed tribal division in the country. Mishra stated that the Bastar division is among the state government's top priorities, and the "Bastar Anjor" initiative will achieve holistic development in the region through seven key innovations. This will empower Bastar to establish a new identity in the fields of development, good governance, education, health, employment, and infrastructure.

During this, Member Secretary of State Policy Commission, Mr. Ashish Kumar Bhatt, Member Dr. K. Subrahmanyam and experts from various fields of UNDP were present.
