✎ Kelo River cleanliness project highlights integrated river conservation with public participation under Seva Sankalp Abhiyan.
Relevance for Banking, SSC & RBI Grade B exams: Polity & Governance
Chhattisgarh’s Finance Minister and Raigarh MLA O.P. Choudhary recently led a cleanliness drive in the Kelo River as part of the *Seva Sankalp Abhiyan*, removing waste and idols submerged during Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations. The initiative also marked the launch of a ₹29.99 crore project for the redevelopment of Kharraghat, a key riverfront in Raigarh, aimed at enhancing civic infrastructure and environmental sustainability. The project includes the construction of an 8.5-acre oxygen park, road upgradation, pedestrian pathways, and waste management systems, reflecting the state government’s focus on integrated urban development and ecological conservation.
This development holds significance for banking and SSC exams as it highlights government-led infrastructure projects, budgetary allocations, and multi-sectoral governance initiatives. For RBI Grade B aspirants, it underscores the role of state finances in public welfare schemes, environmental policies, and urban planning—key areas often tested in economic and governance sections. The emphasis on citizen participation and sustainable practices also aligns with broader themes of inclusive growth and administrative accountability, relevant for both prelims and mains examinations.
