Filling Vacant Supervisor Positions:
To strengthen the Tribal Welfare Department and SC Welfare Department, the state cabinet has greenlit the filling of 50 vacant supervisor positions. This move aligns with the government’s commitment to uplift marginalized communities and improve their socio-economic conditions.
Chief Minister Tribal Development Mission:
The launch of the Chief Minister Tribal Development Mission marks a significant milestone in the state’s commitment to the welfare of its tribal population. The mission aims to provide comprehensive support, including livelihood assistance, healthcare, education, skill development training, and infrastructure development. In its inaugural year, the mission has been allocated a budget of Rs. 30 crore, and registration for beneficiaries will commence shortly.
