"The government's priority is to develop these most backward districts," he told officials at a meeting in Ranchi. Das asked Deputy Commissioners of these districts to focus on the most backward blocks and panchayats of these districts.
Focus on health, education, self-employment, infra
CM Das also said emphasis should be given on health, education, self-employment, and infrastructure. The Jharkhand CM has also asked the Deputy Commissioners to go to a backward village every week, meet the people, know their problems and solve them. Das asked to take the services of retired teachers or youth on contract wherever teachers would be required in schools.
