"under the Amrut 2.0 scheme, initiatives have been taken to beautify and develop Central Road Shiv Bari Pond, Lake of Veterinary Hospital and Ujan Abhaynagar market pond. The central government gives 90 percent of the amount of money spent for the development work done in this project. The state government has to pay 10 percent. 90 percent of the work of the Smart City project is also provided by the central government. Rs 500 crores have been provided for the smart city project. Many things have been developed through the Smart City project. But there is no Smart City Project 2.0".
"Therefore, a demand will be made to the central government to launch the smart city project 2.0 like the Amrut Scheme."

The opposition is continuing to spread misinformation about the proposed Santiniketan Medical College. Santiniketan Medical College purchased the premises with their own money. Building infrastructure. They also have man power. The state government has given contract basis for two years only to IGM Hospitals to teach their college students. The state government allowed Santiniketan Medical College to use IGM Hospital after all inquiries.
Opposition is only opposing to do politics. When ever the development work was done, the opposition started spreading propaganda
