Migration stopped from villages to cities

Mr. Sharma said that we should develop natural resources by consciously and planned, so that future generations do not lack resources.
Public transport should be encouraged more and more

In such a situation, we have to ensure better traffic management by encouraging public transport more and more. He said that by setting up mineral -based industrial units close to the respective mining sector, we can reduce environmental pollution along with saving the cost of transport. During the discussion on the targets of the tourism sector, he said that there are probably no other possibilities in the tourism sector in Rajasthan. He directed to prepare an action plan to make Shekhawati region a major tourist center, developing Shekhawati’s havelis from tourism point of view. Also, he also directed to increase the number of hotels and resorts for tourists staying, promoting religious tourism.
Reviewing the goals related to PHED, the Chief Minister said that we are completely dependent on nature for water, its savings are the supply. Water crisis can be avoided by increasing the planned management of rainwater and by increasing the water recharge capacity of the land. He said that for this, there is a need to encourage campaigns like ‘Karmabhoomi to Matrubhoomi’.
