October 20, 2025

CHIEF Minister Mohan Charan Majhi on Sunday virtually laid the foundation stone for 471 gram panchayat office buildings and distributed the first instalment of ₹40,000 each to 48,693 beneficiaries under the Antyodaya Gruha Yojana (AGY).

The funds were disbursed covering 28 districts except Nuapada and Kalahandi due to the upcoming by-election in Nuapada.

Speaking on the occasion at the Lok Seva Bhawan here, the chief minister termed it a new chapter initiated by the state government for rural development ahead of Diwali. "This reflects the government's commitment to building a prosperous Odisha. The 471 new GP offices will serve as 'new temples' of service, providing dignity, convenience and solutions under one roof," he added.
