FollowUnion Minister Prahlad Joshi has reaffirmed the BJP’s dedication to advancing the Mahadayi Yojana, despite recent setbacks. Joshi emphasized that the progress made on the project has been under the BJP government and assured that they will continue their efforts to see it through to completion.
Joshi pointed out that the BJP was unaware of the Wildlife Board meeting held on July 31, where the National Tiger Conservation Authority was expected to provide feedback on the Mahadayi project. According to Joshi, the Board postponed the matter because it involves a proposal to allocate forest land, and the case is currently under judicial review. However, Joshi made it clear that the project has not been rejected.
