Chief Minister Mr Bhupesh Baghel attended the 63rd annual convention of Chhattisgarh chamber of commerce and industries organized at Deendayal Upadhyay auditorium on Tuesday. On the occasion, Mr Baghel said that new dimensions of development have opened up for the business and industries sector in the state. It is a golden period after the difficult period of COVID crisis. There has been tremendous flow of money from cities to villages of the state. Nearly Rs 1.50 lakh crore has reached the rural areas of the state through various government schemes. We have put money in the pockets of the consumers, which has led to the growth of business and commerce sector. This year Chhattisgarh has not only witnessed the bumper yield of crops but has also undergone significant economic development.

Chief minister further said that every time I go on a visit to any part of the state, people demand opening of Atmanand School and Bank. This shows the economic empowerment of the masses. Our government is also promoting millets, because millets have high nutritional value.
