A statue honoring the Buksa Tribal Community is unveiled by the CM.
According to a statement, Dhami virtually unveiled the statue of Buksa tribal leader Raja Jagat Dev on Friday at Gram Panchayat Roshanpur Dalbaba in the Gadarpur neighborhood of Udham Singh Nagar district.
The Chief Minister stated that Raja Jagat Dev’s life is a priceless illustration of bravery, sacrifice, religious dedication, and cultural preservation, according to the Uttarakhand CMO. According to him, today is a day to honor the magnificent customs, culture, and sacrifices of the Buksa tribal people rather than just the presentation of a statue.
Raja Jagat Dev dedicated his life to defending religion and culture in spite of difficult conditions. His tale is not only one of bravery but also of unwavering faith and self-respect.
Members of the Buksa group, who dwell in places like Udham Singh Nagar, Nainital, and Kotdwar, continue to preserve their culture, customs, and sense of self-worth, the Chief Minister added. Through programs in education, healthcare, housing, and employment, he continued, the state government is fully committed to the cultural preservation of indigenous communities, the documenting of their history, and their welfare.
According to the release, the chief minister of Uttarakhad emphasized the need of conducting study on Raja Jagat Dev’s legacy so that his life and contributions can serve as an inspiration for future generations.
Announcement of New Development Initiatives
Additionally, the Chief Minister unveiled three local development-related projects. These include rebuilding a 3-kilometer road from Gram Balramnagar to Khempur, a 4-kilometer road from Gram Sitapur to ANK Inter College, and the construction of a boundary wall, tin shed, flooring, and restrooms at the Shri Dalbaba Temple prisr in Gram Sabha Roshanpur.
