Namsai, Feb 13: Deputy Chief Minister Chowna Mein attended the Chaupal Beithak on VB-G RAM G and flagged off a Tractor Rally organised by the Bharatiya Janata Party Namsai District Unit today. The programme witnessed enthusiastic participation from farmers, party karyakartas and community members, carrying a strong message of rural empowerment and grassroots development.
The Deputy Chief Minister stated that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the government remains steadfast in its commitment to strengthening rural infrastructure and empowering farming communities. He emphasised that the VB-G RAM G initiative reflects the collective resolve to ensure that the benefits of good governance reach the last mile.
Highlighting the role of Self Help Groups in transforming rural livelihoods, he noted that start ups and innovation in Arunachal Pradesh are opening new avenues of growth for the youth. He further stressed that effective implementation of government schemes requires transparency, proper documentation and systematic monitoring at the Panchayat level. Coordinated efforts, responsible financial management and the use of technology are essential to ensure efficient utilisation of development funds and timely delivery of benefits to rightful beneficiaries.
The programme was attended by MLA Namsai Zingnu Namchoom, ZPC Namsai Sujana Namchoom, ZPC Lohit Basalu Dellang, party office bearers and Panchayat Members.
Later, the Deputy Chief Minister inaugurated the Botanical Garden at Noi Chenam Tengapani in Namsai in the presence of MLA Namsai Zingnu Namchoom, Deputy Commissioner C R Khampa and other officials.
Describing the Botanical Garden as a symbol of the Government’s dedication to biodiversity conservation and ecological awareness, he said Arunachal Pradesh is blessed with immense natural wealth and such initiatives ensure its responsible preservation for future generations. The Botanical Garden includes thematic plant sections, indigenous and rare species zones, medicinal plant areas, walking trails, interpretation and learning spaces, nursery facilities for conservation and a Cafeteria for visitors. The garden will serve as a centre for conservation and research as well as a space for learning, awareness and community engagement.
He congratulated the Namsai Forest Division and the Department of Environment Forest and Climate Change for their efforts in bringing the project to fruition.
In another programme, the Deputy Chief Minister inaugurated the Annex Building of the District Library Namsai. He stated that the new facility reflects the Government’s firm commitment to strengthening educational infrastructure and nurturing a culture of reading and lifelong learning. A library, he remarked, is not merely a building with books but a space where ideas are born, curiosity is encouraged and young minds are shaped for the future.
The expansion of the District Library will provide improved facilities and a more conducive environment for students, researchers and knowledge seekers of Namsai and adjoining areas. He appreciated the officers, public representatives, District Administration and the executing agency PWD for their dedication in completing the project.
The Deputy Chief Minister reaffirmed the Government’s resolve to build a stronger, greener and more progressive Arunachal Pradesh through rural empowerment, environmental conservation and educational advancement.
