Dhami Holds First Uttarakhand Cabinet Meeting in Champawat

Uttarakhand’s Cabinet met in Banbasa, in Champawat district.

Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami led the meeting.

It was the first time the Cabinet had met in Champawat.

The meeting was held near the India-Nepal border, and dozens of important decisions were taken.

Dhami said future Cabinet meetings would also be held in other districts, not only in Dehradun.

He said this could help the government hear local concerns and understand what each region needs.

The government also wants to improve infrastructure, jobs, tourism and connectivity in border areas.

During the meeting, ministers received a traditional shield called a Farra or Chhantoli.

It is associated with Devidhura’s Bagwal tradition and is made mainly from bamboo or ringal strips.
