“People who are jealous of the country’s progress are spreading hatred and division in the society”: CM Yogi’s big statement

Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh said a big thing in the program of educational institutions and teachers

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath gave a big statement during a program on Sunday and said that there are some people and forces in our society who do not like the rapid progress of the country at all. Such people are continuously conspiring to create divisions within the society. The Chief Minister stressed that it is very important to stop such forces having evil intentions as soon as possible and with utmost strictness, so that the atmosphere of the state and the country does not get spoiled.

Special scheme launched for higher education institutions and teachers

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath was saying these things on the occasion of the launch of “Mukhyamantri Shikshak Cashless Yojana” organized for professors and non-teaching staff of higher education institutions. He informed that this excellent initiative of the government is going to directly and hugely benefit about 10 lakh people across the state.

“They get funds from anti-national forces, want to spread chaos”

Taking his address further, CM Yogi said, “You must have also noticed that those who are not at all happy with India’s progress and development work, they are trying to create division in the society on some pretext or the other. These people often get funding from anti-national forces, and they want to spread unrest in the society by misusing those resources.” He further said that such forces have always been trying to create an atmosphere of chaos in the state and the country and completely mislead the general public.

Emphasis on responsibility of society and educational institutions full of negativity

The Chief Minister said that often a society filled with negativity seems eager to work against its own well-being and development. We have to ensure very well that such a situation does not arise at all and it is very important to always be completely alert in this matter. All our educational institutions should be established as major centers of patriotism, new inspiration, innovation and research. He made a special request to all the academicians to prominently bring forward and publish the positive and success stories happening within the society.

He further added, “The publications of our universities must reflect the success stories and their examples from within the society. Whatever we are doing here today, should serve as a great inspiration and role model for our present generation and the generations to come. All our efforts in this direction must clearly reflect the fulfillment of our true duties towards the country.”

About 10 lakh people will get the benefit of cashless medical scheme

Referring to the Chief Minister Teacher Cashless Scheme, he said that this initiative of the state government will definitely prove to be of great help to all the teaching and non-teaching staff of the state. He clarified that both universities and colleges are included under the ambit of this special facility, whether they are fully government, government-aided, privately run or self-financed institutions. Along with this, non-teaching staff of the college have also been included in this scheme, due to which around 10 lakh people will be benefited in total. He thanked the entire team of the Higher Education Department for taking this excellent action plan forward on time and informed that this scheme is being launched by ministers in other districts also.

Big agreement and insurance cover signed with Punjab National Bank

Apart from cashless health facility, making another big announcement, CM Yogi said that the government has also signed an important Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Punjab National Bank (PNB) today, which will give full guarantee of strong social security to the teachers and employees of the state. Under this new agreement, if any unfortunate incident like an accident happens to a teacher, Punjab National Bank will provide huge financial assistance of up to ₹1.5 crore to the family of that teacher.

Additionally, if an extremely unfortunate event like a plane crash occurs, there is a provision to provide a comprehensive coverage of up to ₹3 crore. Besides, full provision is being made to provide cash facility up to ₹ 60,000 and additional life insurance cover up to ₹ 12 lakh for treatment expenses in case of hospitalization.

Said this on national education policy and future of youth

Referring to the National Education Policy (NEP), the Chief Minister said that this policy has opened new avenues of success for the youth of the country and has increased their identity to a great extent at the global level. Praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said that you have shown a new ray of hope to the youth of the country and by bringing the National Education Policy, you have given such a strong system through which today’s Indian youth is creating a distinct identity for itself in the whole world. When the youth of the country were in a state of confusion, the government came forward and guided them.

Strong attack on examination mafia and criminals

Making a strong reference to the irregularities and cheating mafias related to the examinations in the state, the Chief Minister bluntly said that his government has adopted a very strict stand against anyone trying to play with the future of the students.

He warned, “This double-engine government has been saying very clearly from its very first day that any mafia who dares to play with the future of students and youth will have only one and only two consequences: either jail, or we will confiscate all their ancestral property. We have tightened the reins on all these mafias very strictly and no one will be allowed to play with the law.”
