The ‘Bikash Bahana’ Yatra is aimed at fostering greater public participation in the state’s developmental journey. Recognizing that citizen involvement is key to the success of welfare schemes, the government plans to use this outreach initiative to raise awareness across the state—especially in remote and underserved regions.
Through a series of educational and informative programs, the campaign will highlight the various welfare schemes implemented by the government. By taking these messages directly to the people, the initiative seeks to ensure that all citizens are informed and engaged, thereby promoting inclusivity and transparency in governance.
The ‘Bikash Bahana’ Yatra reflects the Odisha Government’s commitment to participatory development and its resolve to bring the benefits of governance closer to every household.
