The Chief Minister's Office of Rajasthan announced on Saturday, June 20, 2026, that Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma chaired the sixth Raj Unnati review meeting, examining progress on a wide range of state infrastructure, welfare, and environment projects and issuing directions to accelerate stalled works.

Context

The Raj Unnati review mechanism is a periodic high-level exercise through which the Rajasthan government tracks compliance with earlier directives across departments. In the sixth edition of the meeting, CM Sharma reviewed development projects and the implementation status of instructions issued at earlier sessions. The meeting covered sectors ranging from power transmission to education, urban transport, and afforestation.

The Chief Minister directed that the 765 kV transmission system, girls' Sainik Schools (Balika Sainik Vidyalayas), the Bharatpur new bus stand, and other infrastructure works be completed at the earliest. These projects span multiple districts and are considered critical to the state's power integration and social infrastructure goals.

Policy Backdrop

The 765 kV transmission line is part of Rajasthan's long-standing plan to strengthen the grid for renewable energy integration, a priority since 2021. The state has been expanding high-voltage transmission capacity to evacuate power from its large solar and wind installations in the western region.

On urban mobility, the meeting directed that PM e-Bus Sewa electric buses already available in Jaipur and Bhilwara be operationalised immediately, and that the supply of remaining buses under the scheme be ensured without further delay. The PM e-Bus Sewa, approved by the Union Cabinet in August 2023 with a mandate for 10,000 electric buses nationwide, has been a key plank of the central government's sustainable urban transport push.

The meeting also reviewed the proposed Karmayogi Bhawan at Lalkothi, Jaipur, directing the Rajasthan State Road Development Corporation (RSRDC) to begin construction work at the earliest. The RSRDC is the state agency responsible for major road and building infrastructure projects.

Stakeholders and Impact

Displeasure (narazgi) was formally expressed over delays in the Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) pumping station and pipeline work in Sanganer, a textile-hub area of Jaipur known for its dyeing industry. Timely completion of the CETP infrastructure is critical for controlling industrial effluent discharge and improving water quality downstream.

CM Sharma also reviewed the implementation of the Pradhan Mantri Janjati Adivasi Nyaya Maha Abhiyan (PM-JANMAN), the central government's saturation mission launched in November 2023 targeting Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups across India. Progress under the Hariyalo Rajasthan Abhiyan — the state's mass afforestation campaign — was also discussed, with the meeting noting that plantation numbers have exceeded the set target, a positive data point for the state's green-cover goals.

Urban commuters in Jaipur and Bhilwara, tribal communities covered under PM-JANMAN, industrial workers and residents near Sanganer, and students who would benefit from girls' Sainik Schools are among the primary stakeholders directly affected by the outcomes of this review.

What's Next

The key deliverables to watch from this meeting include the operational launch dates for PM e-Bus Sewa services in Jaipur and Bhilwara, the commencement of construction on Karmayogi Bhawan by RSRDC, and visible progress on the 765 kV transmission corridor. The CETP work in Sanganer will also be under scrutiny given the Chief Minister's expressed displeasure.

The Raj Unnati framework signals that the BJP government in Rajasthan intends to use structured accountability reviews as a tool to enforce project timelines — a pattern that is likely to intensify as the government approaches the mid-point of its term and seeks tangible delivery milestones to present to voters.
