In a significant stride towards progress, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to engage in a virtual conference with the Deputy Commissioners (DCs) representing all 34 blocks in Jharkhand. The focal point of this interaction, set to take place on Friday, revolves around the accelerated development of these regions, which have been earmarked as the most backward in the state by the esteemed NITI Aayog.
The slate of blocks encompassed by this comprehensive development blueprint encompasses:
- Gomia in the Bokaro district
- Moylehand in Chatra district
- Devipur, Karwan, Sarath, and Sarawan in Deoghar district
- Govindpur in Dhanbad district
- Jarmundi and Ramgarh in Dumka district

The comprehensive development plan, endorsed by the NITI Aayog in July 2023, is strategically designed to enhance the infrastructure, educational framework, and healthcare provisions within these identified blocks. An integral facet of this initiative entails the creation of employment avenues and a concerted effort to alleviate poverty levels.
The forthcoming virtual dialogue with the Deputy Commissioners is poised to delve into the tactical implementation of this transformative development strategy. Furthermore, Prime Minister Modi is slated to interact directly with the residents of these blocks through the virtual platform.
This pioneering endeavor stands as a monumental leap towards the advancement of Jharkhand’s most underdeveloped blocks, holding the potential to positively impact the lives of millions residing within these regions.”
