Jaipur, 21st Jan. Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot inaugurated and laid foundation stones of several projects worth around Rs 275 crore in Barmer on Thursday. Gehlot sought the Centre’s help for the oil refinery project here.

The Rajasthan CM Gehlot said that his government never stopped development works of the previous regime and they will cooperate with the Central Government for the development of the state.

Gehlot appealed to the Centre for requisite cooperation in setting up the oil refinery in Barmer.

The Rajasthan CM also thanked the Centre for giving approval to open a millet research centre in Barmer.

He said that the Rajasthan government has given land to 1,022 families, ending the 15-year wait of the displaced, who were rendered homeless during severe floods in Barmer in 2006.

Gehlot emphasized that earlier no one had imagined that a refinery and power plants could be set up in the Thar desert but now it has become a reality.
