Himachal Pradesh chief minister Jai Ram Thakur Wednesday said the government is committed to the development of Solan town as a vibrant and buzzing town of the state.
Addressing a public meeting at Solan, Thakur said the circuit house at Chambaghat in Solan district which was inaugurated today, was one of the best circuit houses in the state which had been constructed by spending an amount of Rs 8 crore.
This would go a long way in providing best boarding and lodging facilities for the tourists and visitors visiting the town, he added.
He stated that the state government during the Covid pandemic ensured that there was no dearth of oxygen, ventilators, beds etc for the Coronavirus patients.
When this pandemic broke out in the state, there were only 50 ventilators in the state. The state government took up the matter with the Centre government and Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a result of which 500 ventilators were provided immediately to the state under the PM CARES fund, the CM said.
He further stated that the state government also brought home about 2.50 lakh Himachalis stranded in different parts of the country by special buses and trains.
