Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis inaugurated the second phase of the Mukhyamantri Samruddha Panchayat Raj Abhiyan 2.0, a scheme aimed at strengthening local self‑government in Maharashtra.
Maharashtra's Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis officially opened the second phase of the Mukhyamantri Samruddha Panchayat Raj Abhiyan 2.0 on Thursday. The launch, held in the presence of senior state officials, marks the continuation of a flagship programme designed to empower gram panchayats and improve rural governance.
The Phase‑2 rollout expands the initiative's focus on capacity building, digital integration and financial autonomy for local bodies. Officials said the scheme will provide training modules, e‑governance tools and additional funding to enable panchayats to deliver essential services more efficiently.
State authorities emphasized that the programme aligns with broader efforts to decentralise administration and promote inclusive development across Maharashtra's villages. The CM reiterated the government's commitment to ensuring that grassroots institutions receive the resources and support needed for sustainable growth.
The launch is part of the larger 2.0 version of the scheme, which was first introduced in 2022. While details of specific projects under the second phase were not disclosed, the administration indicated that implementation will begin in selected districts before scaling statewide.
Stakeholders, including local representatives and civil society groups, were invited to observe the inauguration and are expected to collaborate with the government in monitoring the programme's progress.
