The government has already waged 'war against drugs' and mass destruction of illegal cultivation of poppy plants has been started.

He said that in order to have permanent solution for flash floods during the monsoon season, dredging and cleaning work of river beds have been started.

He appreciated the efforts and voluntary participation of the people on the eviction process of all encroachment at river banks.

Chief Minister said that the government has already begun the month long celebration to commemorate the first anniversary of the BJP led government in the State.

The first 15 days would be celebrated as "Inauguration Fortnight" and the government would be laying foundation stones for various projects in the last 15 days of the month.

On the occasion, Minister for Health and Family Welfare L.Jayantakumar Singh appealed the people to think such Health Centres as their own property and to maintain it properly.

He maintained that as per the norms, doctors aren't supposed to be posted at Primary Heath Sub-Centres however the government would try to depute a doctor at the Sub-Centre.

As the population of the State is on the rise, Minister said, we need to have more PHCs and Health Care Centres across the State.

Minister mentioned that the government seeks the blessings and support from the people to provide better healthcare in the State.

Asking the politicians to stop the childish, baseless and illogical arguments to the government, he said that the government welcomes every creative and positive suggestion from various sections of the society for the development of the State.
