Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said Jan Abhiyan Parishad plays important and leading role in laying a network of voluntary organizations to provide better services in the field of social service.
The team of the Parishad works with dedication, passion and a sense of mission. The Parishad officials should continue this passion.
The Parishad should also provide a platform to those institutions who are willing to do service work in various fields.
Chief Minister Chouhan was addressing the training workshop of the officers and employees of Jan Abhiyan Parishad under the Samridhi Yojana in Bhopal on Monday.
The participants from across the state attended the workshop. Chief Minister Chouhan inaugurated the workshop by lighting a lamp. Vice-Presidents of the Madhya Pradesh Jan-Abhiyan Parishad, Dr. Jitendra Jamdar (Jabalpur) and Vibhash Upadhyay (Ujjain), besides the Director General of the Parishad, B.R. Naidu and Executive Directors of the Parishad Shri Dhirendra Kumar Pandey and Mukesh Gupta were present.
Chouhan released the report ‘Procedure Documentation and Effectiveness Study of Programme under Mein Corona Volunteer’. This report has been prepared by Professor Yatindra Singh Sisodia and Dr. Manu Gautam on behalf of Madhya Pradesh Institute of Social Science Research, Ujjain.
He said that the work of women self-help groups in the state is no less than any movement.
These groups have done remarkable work. There was a time when women in Madhya Pradesh were confined to their role in a family. Today the turnover of self-help groups is of more than Rs 20 thousand crores.
Women have progressed economically through the activities of the groups. This has increased their self-confidence level.
Women are also cooperating in the campaign of facilitating the Anganwadi kendras.
He has said that good work is being done in the social sector in Madhya Pradesh. Under the guidance of Jan Abhiyan Parishad, the organizations are actively working in the interest of the general public.
There was a time when the existence of this Parishad was being questioned. The Parishad is the umbrella of social institutions.
This sense of dedication should not be lost. Citizens also have the spirit of social service. They need an authentic institution.
Only Jan Abhiyan Parishad can lead the social institutions in a better way.
