Overview
- Chief Minister Mohan Yadav toured Indore on Thursday, visiting a historic stepwell, inaugurating a computer lab at Government Sharda Kanya Higher Secondary School and meeting students before moving on to other inspections.
- Yadav told reporters that primary-school dropout rates in the state have fallen to zero over the past three years, a claim reported by agency briefings that is presented without independent verification in the coverage.
- The new computer lab was opened under the 'School Chale Hum' campaign and the CM encouraged students to continue studies while promoting the state’s implementation of the National Education Policy.
- Later in the day Yadav inspected the under-construction IT Park-3 in Indore, which reporters describe as a roughly Rs 557 crore, 22-storey project covering about 11.25 lakh sq ft aimed at boosting the local IT and services hub.
- He also reviewed pond-deepening work at Limbodi under the 'Jal Ganga Samvardhan Abhiyan', took part in voluntary labour called shramdaan, and then went to Devi Ahilyabai Holkar Airport to welcome President Droupadi Murmu at the start of her visit.
