Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan will visit various cities and villages of the State and will review the status of implementation of public welfare schemes. Beginning by his visit to various areas of Bhopal today, Chief Minister Chouhan reviewed the construction works and the facilities being provided to the people.

After reviewing these works, Chief Minister Chouhan instructed the officials concerned to ensure the completion of these works within the stipulated time. Chouhan said that punitive action will be taken against those who deprive the general public of the facilities available to them. Chief Minister Chouhan inspected the works of Lok Seva Kendra at Collectorate Bhopal, new sewage treatment plants at Bhopal and Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana in Kokta region.
