The minister emphasised that panchayats play a crucial role in the progress and prosperity of villages, and it is the duty of the entire panchayat to carry out welfare projects in consultation with the public. Assuring the village panchayats, he added that there would be no shortage of funds for development works, urging them to work towards progress and act as the voice of the people.
