Many people saw the Gedi for the first time- The Chief Minister said that the festivals which were the hallmark of our Chhattisgarhi identity were being marginalized in their own state. There were many people in urban areas who had not heard the name of Hareli festival. When we came out of Gedi from the Chief Minister’s residence on the day of Hareli, we saw how rich cultural heritage we were carrying and obliterating it. Our festivals, our tradition which gave us energy, were marginalized. For the first time, the holiday started on our Teej festival, Karma Jayanti, Hareli, World Tribal Day.
The Chief Minister also remembered the late Shri Chandulal Chandrakar and the late Shri Pawan Dewan. The Chief Minister said that it is a coincidence that today is also the birth anniversary of two other great personalities. Late Shri Chandulal Chandrakar and late Pawan Diwan were also born on this day and they too had a similar dream about Chhattisgarhi Asmita. They were from different professions, but coincidentally, their work was the same and their thinking was the same.
The Chief Minister said that he had a very intimate relationship with the late Shri Tarachand Sahu. Many memories are associated with him. They also used to come to my village Kurudheed. There are many memories associated with those who miss. The Chief Minister also shared some of these memories with social people.
If we are given an opportunity, we will run the plant of Nagarnar – The Chief Minister said that the central government wants to disinvest the Nagarnar plant. We have asked the Center to give us the opportunity to run the plant. Chhattisgarh has a team of talented people. If we get an opportunity, we will run the plant better so that better employment opportunities are created for the local people. He said that there has been a discussion with the Prime Minister regarding FCI not taking rice. We are committed to the interests of farmers and our priority is to promote farming.
