Apart from education, industrial other sectors, women are also making their mark as cultivators in Madhya Pradesh. It may be mentioned that at the behest of Chief Minister Mr Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Madhya Pradesh Women in Agriculture (MAPWA) Project is being effectively implemented in the state. About 60 to 70 percent works in the agriculture sector are done by rural women while they indirectly participate in other works. The State Government has launched a new project since the year 2007-08 with a view to giving technical shape to women's participation in agriculture and ensuring quality in the works being undertaken by women. The project covers technical training to women farmers, inter-district tours, village-level training, training for forming self-help groups, etc, Reports SMS News & Features.

No-trust vote: Much ado about nothing

By Muslim Saleem

Bhopal, December 5, 2011

The opposition Congress Party in Madhya Pradesh assembly had to bite dust once again when the no-confidence motion moved by it fizzled out. It had to be since Congress failed to raise any worthwhile issue and levelled only false charges against Madhya Pradesh Government led by Chief Minister Mr Shivraj Singh Chouhan. Naturally, the no-confidence motion fell flat on its face, reports SMS News and Features.

The Congress has failed to realise that the state has gone places in development during the term of Mr. Shivraj Singh Chouhan as Chief Minister so far. The economic growth rate has touched 10 percent mark which is higher than the national average. Law and order situation continues to be better and Madhya Pradesh now ranks among first two-three states in development. Under such circumstances, it was obvious that the no-confidence motion was aimed at maligning the government’s image.
