Raipur 6 July 2025 / Chief Minister Shri Vishnudeo Sai today inaugurated a three-day foundational and orientation training programme for newly elected District Panchayat Presidents and Vice-Presidents at Thakur Pyarelal State Institute of Panchayat and Rural Development, Nimora, Raipur.

Addressing the gathering, Chief Minister Shri Sai said that Panchayati Raj Institutions are the backbone of rural development. “As newly elected Presidents and Vice-Presidents of District Panchayats, you have both a significant opportunity and a great responsibility. With strong determination, even one individual can transform the face of an entire district,” he remarked.

Sharing his own journey, Shri Sai said, “Those who serve the people with sincerity and a spirit of public welfare are always supported by the people themselves. I too began my political career as a Panch. I had never imagined that I would enter politics. When I was 10 years old, I lost my father, and the responsibility of my entire family came onto my shoulders. My life has been a story of continuous struggle. I never thought I would even become a Sarpanch, but with the blessings of the people, I eventually had the honour to serve as MLA, MP, and now as Chief Minister.”

He added that resources are less important than the will to achieve something meaningful. “With a mindset focused on public interest, even a single person can accomplish remarkable things. Among the most inspiring individuals I have observed closely are Dr. Achyuta Samanta of Odisha and Nanaji Deshmukh. Dr. Samanta, who grew up amid hardship, dedicated his life to social service and established a large educational institution in Bhubaneswar, where nearly 25,000 tribal children are receiving free education. Similarly, in Chitrakoot, Nanaji Deshmukh adopted 500 villages through Deendayal Research Institute and worked relentlessly for their holistic development. When I visited in 2006–07, I learned that 80 villages had already become self-reliant, with every family empowered economically. These examples show how much transformative change one individual can bring.”

Highlighting the potential of Chhattisgarh, the Chief Minister said, “Our state is rich in every sense. About 44% of the land is forested. The soil is fertile, and our farmers are hardworking. Naxalism was a major obstacle to our progress, but we are overcoming it. For those Naxals who have surrendered, we have designed an excellent rehabilitation policy. Soon, Chhattisgarh will be free from Naxal violence, and regions like Bastar will have roads, electricity, drinking water, and all basic amenities.”

Sharing a personal experience, Shri Sai recounted his visit to Muler village in Bastar division. “Residents there used to walk 25 km on foot, taking three days just to collect their monthly ration. You can imagine how far behind in development the area was. We decided to create a separate Panchayat for Muler and established a ration shop there. When I visited later, the happiness was evident on the people’s faces.”

Chief Minister Shri Sai urged the newly elected leaders to make the most of the training. “Without developing villages, we cannot build a developed Chhattisgarh. Always ensure that there is no compromise on the quality of development work. Regular field visits and inspections help tighten administration and speed up development.”

Deputy Chief Minister Shri Vijay Sharma, addressing the participants, said, “As Presidents and Vice-Presidents of District Panchayats, you must prepare yourselves thoroughly to discharge your duties effectively. You should have an in-depth understanding of the legal provisions governing Panchayati Raj. Think beyond mere construction works—consider what other initiatives can drive progress in your villages. Activities such as dairy production help strengthen rural economies. Economic prosperity in villages guides the youth towards constructive pursuits and away from substance abuse. During this training, reflect on the functioning of Gram Panchayats and learn all related processes thoroughly so that you can serve the people better. This training programme will eventually cover 1.7 lakh representatives across all levels of Panchayati Raj Institutions, and today marks the beginning.”

On this occasion, the Chief Minister also released the PESA: Panchayat Provisions and Chhattisgarh Panchayat Provisions Guidebook, Panchman magazine, and resource material for Presidents, Vice-Presidents, and members of Janpad Panchayats. He also planted a Maulshree sapling in the premises of the Institute.

The event was attended by Principal Secretary, Panchayat and Rural Development Department, Smt. Niharika Barik Singh; Secretary Shri Bhim Singh; Director Smt. Priyanka Rishi Mahobia; and Director of the Institute, Shri P.C. Mishra.

Raipur, 5 July 2025/Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai has extended warm greetings and best wishes to the people of Chhattisgarh on the auspicious occasion of Devshayani Ekadashi. He expressed hope that the blessings of Lord Shrihari Vishnu would continue to shower peace, happiness and prosperity upon all.

Chief Minister Shri Sai noted that Devshayani Ekadashi holds a special significance in Sanatan tradition. According to religious beliefs, on this day Lord Vishnu enters a four-month period of Yog-Nidra known as Chaturmas. During this time, ceremonies like weddings are traditionally deferred, and acts of devotion, penance and charity are considered particularly meritorious.

This festival falls on the Ekadashi tithi (11th day) of the bright fortnight of the month of Ashadha. It is also referred to as Hari Shayani Ekadashi, Devshayani Ekadashi, or Ashadhi Ekadashi. Devotees observe fasts, offer prayers and perform special rituals dedicated to Lord Vishnu, seeking the welfare of all beings.

As per the Puranas, it is believed that from this day, Lord Vishnu reclines on the cosmic serpent Sheshnag in the Kshir Sagar and remains in yognidra until Prabodhini Ekadashi, four months later. This period is therefore regarded as highly auspicious for spiritual reflection and self-discipline.

The Chief Minister urged citizens to observe this sacred occasion with goodwill, restraint and virtuous conduct, and to move forward on the path of collective welfare and personal spiritual growth.

He played a pioneering role in empowering social justice and awakening national consciousness among the masses.

The Chief Minister noted that Dr. Mookerjee envisioned a progressive and prosperous India. He worked tirelessly towards building a strong and self-reliant nation. His clear conviction was that India’s unity must remain intact under all circumstances. Even today, this message inspires us to dedicate ourselves to the service of the nation.

He further added that Dr. Mookerjee’s contribution to Indian politics, education, and social development was immensely significant. He not only upheld the principles of Indian nationalism and social justice in theory but also embodied them in practice. His ideas remain relevant even today and continue to guide us on the path of progress.
