Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that the tradition of naming roads after great personalities is old.
Today, for the first time in the country, a road is being named after daughters, he said.
The road from Bharat Mata Crossroads to Polytechnic Square in Bhopal, which is now known as Smart City Road, will now be known as ‘Ladli Laxmi Path’.
Chief Minister Chouhan was addressing the ‘Ladli Laxmi Path’ dedication programme at Bharat Mata Chouraha, on Wednesday.
Chief Minister Chouhan said that there is no other honor greater than the honor of daughters. We have decided that ‘Ladli Laxmi Path’ will be developed in all 52 districts of the state. Information related to women empowerment, schemes run for the welfare and advancement of girls and women will be displayed on both sides of these paths. This will make women and society aware.
Chief Minister Chouhan said that implementation of Ladli Laxmi Yojana has been the most important work of my life. I wish always that daughters should be competent, happy and achieve in life.
Chief Minister Chouhan greeted the Ladli Laxmis participating in the programme by showering them with flowers and blessed them. Ladli Laxmis also took selfies with Chief Minister Chouhan.
Ladli Laxmi Avni Srivastava, who came from Shahdol, told that the amount received from the scheme has helped her in getting higher education.
Avani is currently pursuing BCA course. Avni thanked Chief Minister Chouhan for taking care of the nutrition, education and career of Ladli Laxmis.
