Jaipur is getting transformed in an extraordinary manner as it prepares to host the prestigious Rising Rajasthan Summit, scheduled for December 9-11, 2024. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be inaugurating the summit, which aims to highlight the vast potential of Rajasthan as an investment hub.
Citywide Enhancements to Welcome Global Investors
The Jaipur Municipal Corporation is initiating a host of beautification works to add the charm of the city. Roads are being rectified, walls are covered with vibrant murals, and public spaces are brightened, makingJaipur present an attractive and dynamic face to international delegates and investors.
A Unique Campaign: Making Jaipur Beggar-Free
The campaign to rehabilitate street beggars has been initiated by JMC in association with the image-building efforts of the city. More than 60 persons have been rescued from the streets and intersections and have been placed in rehabilitation centers. The rehabilitation work not only aims at creating a beggar-free Jaipur but also at transforming the lives of these persons by providing them with dignity and opportunities.
The rescued individuals are offered shelter, food, and essential facilities. More importantly, they receive skill-based training tailored to their capabilities, enabling them to pursue jobs or start small businesses. By breaking the cycle of dependency, the program empowers these individuals to lead self-reliant lives.
Addressing Winter Challenges for the Homeless
The campaign also addresses the challenges faced by the homeless during Jaipur’s harsh winters. Rehabilitation centers ensure that vulnerable individuals have access to safe and warm accommodations, preventing fatalities caused by extreme weather conditions.
Public and Social Organization Involvement
JMC is actively inviting social organizations and citizens to contribute to this noble cause. Contributions in the form of food, shelter, and other necessities are encouraged to enhance the campaign’s impact and create sustainable change.
While the beautification projects aim to impress global investors, the city’s efforts to uplift its vulnerable populations highlight a commitment to inclusive development. These initiatives reflect Jaipur’s dedication to not only fostering economic growth but also ensuring social equity.
With the Rising Rajasthan Summit around the corner, Jaipur is poised to emerge as a beacon of investment and humanitarian progress, setting a precedent for urban development across India.
