Uttarakhand Boosted by Rs 180 Crore Capital Investment Assistance

The Union Finance Ministry has allocated Rs 180 crore for Uttarakhand's capital investment projects, enhancing state infrastructure. Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami emphasized the importance of these funds and recent approvals for energy development. Online services and welfare schemes aim to benefit the state's most remote residents.

The Union Finance Ministry announced on Tuesday a substantial financial package of Rs 180 crore for Uttarakhand's capital investment needs, according to an official release. This funding is set to bolster infrastructure development across the state.

Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami expressed gratitude, stating that such financial aid would support vital projects, enhancing Uttarakhand's development. The recent approval to utilize 103 hectares of forest land for the Koteshwar-Rishikesh power line underscores efforts to improve the state's energy sector.

Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, the state strives to ensure benefits of government schemes reach every citizen. A push for digital accessibility now means residents can access services without visiting government offices, with accountability measures ensuring effective administration.
