Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das today said efforts were on to give all facilities to villages.
Recalling PURA vision of former President A P J Abdul Kalam, Das said development works were being expedited as the poor and tribals in the villages have the right to get services like road, electricity, water, irrigation, school, health and other such facilities.
Alleging that some people were doing politics by misleading the masses, Das said without the permission land would not be taken and land givers would be given four times the cost of the land, which would be used for hospitals, schools and other things, an official release said here.
Laying a foundation stone for vendors' market at Jaipal Singh Stadium here, Das said that the government wanted to ensure a respectful living to those people and the market was aimed towards that endeavour.
He also said foundation for a flyover in Ranchi would be laid on October 2, adding metro services would also be constructed to smoothen traffic and roads were being widened.
He said vegetable vendors too would get the same arrangement.
