PM Modi Honors Tribal Contributions and Launches Major Welfare Projects

On Birsa Munda's 150th birth anniversary, PM Modi highlights tribal history and unveils development initiatives worth over ₹6,640 crore.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized the overlooked contributions of tribal communities to India's freedom movement, criticizing past governments for neglecting their role.
The government declared November 15 as 'Janjaatiya Gaurav Divas' to honor tribal heritage and launched initiatives to preserve tribal history, including new museums and research institutes.
Development projects worth ₹6,640 crore were announced, focusing on education, health, infrastructure, and housing to uplift tribal areas.
A significant increase in the budget for tribal welfare was highlighted, with allocations rising from ₹25,000 crore to ₹1,25,000 crore under the current administration.
PM Modi's return to Delhi was delayed due to a technical snag in his aircraft, which led to a temporary no-fly zone in Jharkhand's Deoghar district.
