CMs, state heads arrive at NITI Aayog meet on 'Viksit Rajya for Viksit Bharat'

Chief ministers including Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath, Gujarat CM Bhupendra Patel, Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami, Chhattisgarh CM Vishnu Deo Sai, Madhya Pradesh CM Mohan Yadav, Andhra Pradesh CM N Chandrababu Naidu, Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin, Odisha CM Mohan Charan Majhi, Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann, Jammu and Kashmir CM Omar Abdullah, Telangana CM Revanth Reddy, Tripura CM Manik Saha, and Himachal Pradesh CM Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu arrived at the venue.

Ahead of his arrival at the meeting, Himachal Pradesh CM Sukhu outlined his state's key concerns, stating, "NITI Aayog looks into the state-related issues. My main issue will be that if the power projects in Himachal Pradesh, NHPC, and NTPC are completely debt-free, then the 12 per cent free royalty that is taken from consumers through pass-through, that free royalty should be increased and that project should be returned to the people of Himachal; a time limit should be set for that... PSU projects should also be returned to the people of Himachal."

Chaired by PM Modi, the 10th meeting of the NITI Aayog Governing Council will bring together chief ministers and lieutenant governors of states and Union Territories, Union ministers, and the vice chairman, members and the CEO of NITI Aayog to deliberate on the roadmap for achieving 'Viksit Rajya, Viksit Bharat @2047' - a developed India by 2047. -- ANI
