PM Modi will additionally launch the National Cadet Corps Alumni Association of which he would be the first member. He will begin 100 new co-educational Sainik Schools. These will be made with the help of the private sector over the coming two years.

Developed at a cost of Rs 2,600 crore in Mahoba, the Arjun Sahayak project is the largest project that the PM dedicated to the people. This project on the Dhasan river would render irrigation facilities to 1.5 lakh farmers in 168 villages of Hamirpur, Banda and Mahoba.
