Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan is set to visit Chhattisgarh today, marking a major milestone in rural development.

- Chouhan will hand over symbolic keys to beneficiaries of PMAY-G and PM Janman Awas Yojana, celebrating the completion of their newly constructed homes.  
- A housewarming ceremony will be conducted for fifty-one thousand beneficiaries, while a groundbreaking event will be held for those beginning construction.  
- The visit will also recognize the contributions of Self-Help Group women, particularly the Lakhpati Didis, who have demonstrated excellence in rural entrepreneurship and financial self-reliance.
