Raipur 6 January 2025: Lord Ram resides in every particle of our Chhattisgarh’s land. We have Rajim, which is called the Prayag of Chhattisgarh, and Kharoud, which is called the Kashi of Chhattisgarh. It was my good fortune that we all witnessed the program of Pranapratishtha of Lord Ramlala from Shivrinarayan, the holy land of Mata Shabari in Janjgir-Champa district. On January 22, it will be one year since the Pranapratishtha of Lord Ramlala in Ayodhya Dham. This date is one of the biggest days of cultural pride for all of us. When our illustrious Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji did the Pranapratishtha of Lord Ramlala, it was a very emotional moment for all of us. Modi ji also paid obeisance to Mata Shabari in his address on this occasion. Mother Shabari’s affection for Lord Ram makes us all emotional. Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai said this while addressing the inauguration-bhumi pujan ceremony organized in Janjgir Champa district.
Chief Minister Sai said that people of Ramnami community, who worship formless Ram, also live in this region. Who have settled Ram in every pore of their body. Prime Minister had also invited them to the Pran Pratishtha ceremony of Ramlala. After the Pran Pratishtha of Ramlala in Ayodhya Dham, when I went to see Ramlala along with the cabinet, then I also presented berries of Shivrinarayan. We have started Ramlala Ayodhya Dham Darshan Yojana, through which till now more than 20 thousand devotees of the state have visited Ayodhya Dham, Kashi Dham.
Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai has said that we are working fast to make Chhattisgarh developed. Chhattisgarh is getting the benefit of having a double engine government in the state. The state is also moving ahead in other schemes including rail, road. He said that our government, working on the “Modi Ki Guarantee”, decided on the second day of taking oath to provide housing to 18 lakh people of the state who were deprived of housing. Today, a large number of PM Awas Yojana beneficiaries are getting their houses built and new houses are being approved. He said that Modi Ki Guarantee means the guarantee of the guarantee being fulfilled.
Chief Minister Sai congratulated 57 newly married couples for entering a new married life in a mass marriage ceremony organized under the Chief Minister Kanya Vivah Yojana at a program organized at the Government High School Ground in Janjgir.

Most of the areas in this district are endowed with irrigation facilities. Maximum paddy is produced here. It is a matter of happiness that the farmers here are getting the benefits of the schemes. Revered Atal ji is the creator of Chhattisgarh and in his Chhattisgarh, our government is working towards good governance with better schemes and we are committed to this.
