Madhya Pradesh’s cabinet met on Tuesday and approved a package of development schemes totaling ₹42,490 crore. The allocation spans multiple sectors, with significant funding earmarked for schools, colleges, road upgrades, and horticultural initiatives.
Among the approved projects are three large‑scale irrigation schemes aimed at boosting water availability for agriculture in drought‑prone regions. The cabinet also sanctioned the creation of mineral department offices in newly formed districts to streamline resource management.
