The Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra will cover the tribal dominated regions of Mysuru and Chamarajanagar besides propagating the various Union Government schemes to the targeted community. An IEC (Information, Education, Communication) van will go around the tribal haadis or hamlets in Mysuru while two such vans will operate in Chamarajanagar.
The yatra was flagged off by the Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot at a function held at the Karnataka State Tribal Research Institute in the city to mark Birsa Munda Jayanti and Janjatiya Gaurav Divas on Wednesday.
Though the thrust of the IEC vans will be on rural hinterland, it will also cover parts of urban areas to highlight the Union government’s projects launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
