Odisha Govt Launches ‘Bikashita Gaon’ Scheme for Village Development:
Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi launched the ‘Bikashita Gaon Bikashita Odisha’ (BGBO) scheme in Jankia, Khordha district. The initiative aims to enhance rural infrastructure development across Odisha. With a ₹5,000 crore budget for five years, the scheme will focus on improving road connectivity, civic amenities, educational facilities, and micro tourism development. The BJP-led government promises to ensure holistic village development within five years, keeping development and politics separate. This scheme follows the path of earlier initiatives like ‘Ama Gaon Ama Bikash’ (2018) and ‘Ama Odisha Naveen Odisha’ (2023) but with improved implementation and financial commitment.
