Kailash Vijayvargiya Hails Madhya Pradesh's 70-Year Development Journey At 71st Foundation Day Celebrations In Indore
Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Madhya Pradesh celebrated its 71st Foundation Day on Sunday with a district-level function at Lata Mangeshkar Auditorium in Rajendra Nagar. Urban development and housing minister Kailash Vijayvargiya, the chief guest, highlighted the state's transformation over seven decades.
“Madhya Pradesh was established on November 1, 1956, and I was born on May 13 the same year. The state and I are almost the same age. I have witnessed its transformation. There was a time when Madhya Pradesh was considered a backward state, but today it has made significant progress,” Vijayvargiya said.
He recalled studying in a school without doors and windows, where students had to clean the premises every morning. Highlighting development, he said the state had built over one lakh kilometres of roads, while the government aimed to expand irrigation coverage to one crore hectares.
