The Chief Minister noted

The Chief Minister also noted the importance of involving experts in this area, adding that, to make India a developed nation by 2047, rapid progress is being made across all fields.

"The country is prospering economically, socially, and morally. The e-governance initiatives led by Modi ji have promoted transparency in government operations. Demonetisation, GST, and the DBT system have been instrumental in eradicating corruption at its roots," Dhami said.

He stated that the Uttarakhand government adheres to a zero-tolerance policy towards corruption and has taken strict action against those found guilty. The administration is working to foster a culture of transparency to eliminate opportunities for corruption.
