Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav has said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the country is running at full speed on the path of economic progress. Infrastructure works are the backbone on which economic and inclusive development policies take shape. We should recognise the power of technology, make good use of it, and fulfill the resolve in the interest of society so that along with this generation, the coming generations too can benefit. Chief Minister Dr Yadav was virtually addressing the conference organised in Bhopal by the Construction Industry Development Council (CIDC) from Ujjain. Chief Minister Dr Yadav also virtually inaugurated the conference on ‘Incorporation of innovations in infrastructure construction’. CM Dr Yadav said that the conference should consider infrastructure development, environment, health, innovations, etc. holistically. In the era of new technology, only continuous discussions on one platform will open new paths and doors for inclusive development. Every possibility should be explored for the betterment of the state and construction. Chief Minister Dr Yadav said that we have to emphasise building effective and flexible infrastructure to protect against natural disasters and climate change crises. The pace of construction will also have to be increased by adopting new methods. There are immense possibilities in the field of construction.

 

There is also scope for improvement in reducing construction costs and resources. Today there is a need to adopt environment-friendly construction materials and construction processes. Weather-based construction also needs to be considered holistically. Chief Minister Dr Yadav congratulated everyone for this important event on the occasion of Teacher’s Day. He said, “Today, we will get new inspiration on Teachers’ Day dedicated to Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan. You all know that the Guru-Shishya tradition has special importance in Indian culture. Keeping this in view, the Madhya Pradesh Government has decided to celebrate the festival of Guru Pournima at the Government-level. It is a matter of happiness that the name of Vice Chancellors has now been changed to Kulgurus.” Chief Minister Dr Yadav said that researchers are like scientific gurus.
