Union Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan marked his birthday by combining environmental action with social welfare pledges in Vidisha. Starting with a plantation event, he urged relentless tree-planting to cool the planet, portraying trees as biodiversity hubs and natural air purifiers.
Chouhan’s big reveal: ‘Mama Coaching’ initiatives in Vidisha, Raisen, and Bhairunda to nurture talented poor children free of cost. ‘Poverty won’t dim their aspirations,’ he vowed, enabling paths to bureaucracy and success.
The ‘Prem-Sundar Talent Honor’ scheme will celebrate top students in memory of his parents, offering monetary rewards. Differently-abled constituents will receive motorized e-bikes, promoting mobility and self-reliance for jobs and daily life.
To bridge healthcare deserts, ‘Mama Mobile Hospitals’ will deploy across all eight Vidisha assembly areas. Fully equipped with medical teams, advanced testing like ECG and lab services, plus ample medicines, these roaming facilities will halt in rural clusters.
Servicing 5-10 villages per stop, they deliver free diagnostics, treatments for everyday health issues, prescriptions, and specialist referrals. This proactive outreach embodies Chouhan’s vision of inclusive development, where health and education uplift every marginalized voice.
