Chief Minister Chouhan said that these festivals are festivals of love, enthusiasm and brotherhood. Everyone is preparing to celebrate these festivals of colors with enthusiasm. We could not celebrate the festival for the last 2 years due to Covid pandemic. Now Covid is under control. The whole state is filled with joy and enthusiasm.

Referring to the grant given, he said that the state government decided to give relief to the farmers and pay their interest after the previous government did not fulfill the promise of waiving the loan of Rs two lakhs of the farmers. Electricity bills of the Corona period have been postponed. Farmers and consumers will not be allowed to bear the burden of these bills. Dearness allowance has also been given to the employees. Children are going to school now. Offline exams are also being held.

Chief Minister Chouhan told that he himself will participate in the programme of Holika Dahan using gau-kashth.
Chief Minister Chouhan said that cleanliness survey is in progress. All citizens must keep their village and city clean. This is our responsibility. The pride day of the cities and villages should also be celebrated. Every person must contribute something for his village and city.
