Madhya Pradesh is meeting the power needs of both the state and the nation: CM Mohan Yadav

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav emphasized the strategic importance of electricity, calling it as essential as air and water, while highlighting the state’s growing contribution to the nation’s power needs.

Speaking at a special event, he said, “It is a matter of pride that Madhya Pradesh fulfills the power needs of industries, farmers and citizens of the state and also contributes to the nation’s requirements. The Delhi Metro runs on electricity supplied from Madhya Pradesh.”

The Chief Minister outlined plans to ensure that by 2047, Madhya Pradesh remains power surplus, with no shortages of electricity. He added that the state has increased solar power generation by 30 percent over the last 11 years and is actively promoting clean energy initiatives.

Over 51,000 New Posts Approved in State Power Companies

Dr. Yadav handed over appointment letters to more than 1,000 newly selected employees and announced that over 51,000 new posts will be filled in the state’s power companies. “This will strengthen the functioning of the companies. Farmers are being given subsidies worth about Rs. 20,267 crore this year, while over one crore families in the state have received subsidies worth Rs. 6,445 crore from the electricity department,” he said.

He also highlighted schemes such as the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana and noted that Sanchi has been developed as the state’s first Solar City, with around 32 lakh farmers receiving solar pumps. “The clean energy generated in the state is giving a new shape to the energy industry,” Dr. Yadav added.

The Chief Minister further noted that the Public Health Engineering Department has begun generating its own electricity, which will increase demand for skilled manpower and enhance the energy sector’s overall responsibility.

Exhibition and Interaction Highlight Achievements

At the event, Dr. Yadav inaugurated an exhibition showcasing the achievements of Madhya Pradesh’s power companies and interacted with representatives of electricity employees’ organisations. A short film on the state’s energy sector was screened, and appointment letters were formally handed over to the newly recruited personnel. Families of the new employees were also present.

The Chief Minister was felicitated by Energy Minister Shri Pradyumn Singh Tomar, who presented a turban, shawl, and citation for approving more than 51,000 regular posts in state power companies.

Shri Tomar said, “By approving such a large number of appointments, CM Dr. Yadav has given a new lease of life to the state’s power companies. For the first time, so many regular posts have been sanctioned, which is why the Chief Minister was felicitated today.” He added, “The energy department is constantly working for the welfare of farmers and consumers. Farmers will no longer have to irrigate their fields during chilly nights, as daytime power supply for irrigation is being ensured.”

Madhya Pradesh Advancing Rapidly in Energy Sector

Additional Chief Secretary (Energy) Shri Neeraj Mandloi stated, “Over 1,000 youths are being appointed today, and more than 51,700 permanent posts have been approved in the six state power companies. This initiative will help Madhya Pradesh set new benchmarks in the nation's energy sector.”

Shri Mandloi added that the department has consistently met the energy needs of both the state and the nation. “With innovations in solar and conventional energy, Madhya Pradesh is moving ahead rapidly. The state is committed to extending full support to new investors in the energy sector,” he said, also thanking officials, employees, and employee organisations for their cooperation.

The event was attended by Mayor Smt. Malti Rai, MLAs Shri Rameshwar Sharma and Shri Vishnu Khatri, Power Management Company MD Shri Avinash Lavania, and other officials and employees.
