Raipur. Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended warm greetings to the people of Chhattisgarh on the occasion of the state’s 25th Foundation Day, celebrating its journey from a Naxal-affected region to one of India’s fastest-developing states.
In his message shared on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the Prime Minister lauded the spirit, talent, and entrepreneurial energy of Chhattisgarh’s people, emphasizing their role in shaping a “Viksit Bharat” (Developed India).
“Many congratulations to all my brothers and sisters of Chhattisgarh on the 25th anniversary of the state’s Foundation Day. This state, dedicated to nature and culture, is today setting new benchmarks of progress. Many areas here, once affected by Naxalism, are now competing for development. I am confident that with the dedication and enterprise of the hardworking and skilled people here, our state will play a key role in realizing the vision of a developed India,” PM Modi wrote.
Chhattisgarh’s Inspiring Transformation
Chhattisgarh, known for its rich natural beauty, tribal heritage, and vibrant culture, was carved out of Madhya Pradesh in 2000. Over the past 25 years, it has witnessed a significant transformation across various sectors — including infrastructure, industry, agriculture, and education.
The Prime Minister acknowledged how regions once struggling with Naxal violence have now become symbols of progress and peace, reflecting the government’s focus on inclusive development and security-led growth.
Chhattisgarh: Blending Tradition with Modern Growth
Chhattisgarh has made its mark as a state that harmonizes cultural richness with modern development goals. From Bastar’s tribal art and folk traditions to the industrial hubs of Raipur, Bhilai, and Korba, the state continues to evolve as a model for sustainable and inclusive growth.
The government’s push for infrastructure development, rural empowerment, and industrial investment has further accelerated progress in the region.
PM Modi’s Vision for a Developed Chhattisgarh
Prime Minister Modi’s message resonates with his broader vision of “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas”, highlighting the importance of unity, trust, and collective effort in achieving national development goals.
By recognizing Chhattisgarh’s achievements, he reaffirmed the Centre’s commitment to supporting the state’s growth story — ensuring that the benefits of development reach every village and citizen.
As Chhattisgarh celebrates its 25th Foundation Day, the state stands as a shining example of how resilience, culture, and innovation can drive transformation. Under the guidance of visionary leadership and the tireless efforts of its people, Chhattisgarh continues to emerge as a pillar of progress in India’s development journey.
