Bengal CM Suvendu Adhikari to review Bankura development works
The Chief Minister of West Bengal is going to visit a district called Bankura.
He will have a big meeting with local government workers there.
The meeting is about roads, water, housing and jobs.
Bankura is a district that needs a lot of development help.
In the last election, people there voted for the BJP party.
But the local village councils are run by a different party, the Trinamool Congress.
Some officials said development work has slowed down in the last few months.
The Chief Minister wants to check on housing plans, job schemes and drinking water problems.
He also wants to make sure tribal people get the full benefits of development.
West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari will chair a high-level administrative meeting at the Zilla Parishad Auditorium in Bankura on Tuesday.
The meeting will review rural infrastructure, drinking water supply, housing schemes and employment generation initiatives.
Bankura has 12 Assembly constituencies, 190 panchayats across 22 blocks and 2.9 million voters, with the BJP sweeping all 12 seats in the last Assembly elections.
Local bodies including the Zilla Parishad remain under Trinamool Congress control, while officials have reported development work slowing over the past three months and low attendance of key officials.
The agenda includes the Banglar Bari housing survey, national census preparations, the 125-day employment scheme and chronic summer drinking water shortages in Jangal Mahal.
