The Chief Minister said that in a meeting on Monday, precautionary steps were discussed about Korona.
He said, “We should be ready for every situation. There should be no obstruction in the system of ventilator, oxygen and hospitals. Cases of Corona have increased from 65 to 80, but the situation is not serious right now.”

He launched a mixed economy, laid the foundation of the Green Revolution, promoting the cooperative movement and decentralization of power. During his 17 years of tenure, he established many dams, public sector industries and educational institutions as Prime Minister.
He said, “If the country has gained economic strength and food self -sufficiency today, then it is due to the foundation laid by Nehru. Every Indian should remember them with respect. If today India is a big economy of the world, it is the result of Nehru’s foresight.”
