Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh on Saturday was all gaga about Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rule at the centre, saying the latter has brought in 'magical change' in the entire nation in the last two years.

"The amount that is needed for the development of the state has been given to us by the centre. There has been a magical change that has been brought by Prime Minister Modi in the entire nation through his various schemes in the last two years," Singh said.

"Prime Minister Modi led-BJP Government at the centre has provided all funds for development of the state. I am sure that under the leadership of Modi ji, the state will make immense development in the coming three years," he added.

Highlighting the schemes started by Prime Minister Modi, including Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana, New Crop Insurance Scheme, Mudra Yojana and Digital India besides others, the Chief Minister said these schemes have commenced a new era of prosperity and progress in Chhattisgarh.

He also said that the state government, in coordination with the centre, is making all efforts to end the naxal menace.

'Vikas Parv' is being celebrated in all the BJP-ruled states on completion of two years of Prime Minister Modi-led NDA regime at the Centre.

Addressing a 'Vikash Parv' rally on the completion of two years of the Modi government earlier in the day, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh appealed to the maoists to shun violence and join peace talks.

He said that the government was ready to discuss all demands of the maoists if they give up arms.

The Home Minister further said there is no place for violence in India as people in the country don't accept it.
