Addressing the gathering on occasion, CM Yadav highlighted heritage and development in the past two decades in the state.
He urged people to participate in the celebration.

The events will be organised across the state and the Culture Department has prepared a long list of programmes. Several renowned artists, including singers KS Chitra, Papon, Javed Ali, Monali Thakur and Meet Bros, will perform at the function.

Madhya Pradesh came into existence on November 1, 1956, following the reorganisation of states.
It was created by merging the erstwhile Madhya Pradesh (without the Marathi-speaking areas, which were merged with Bombay state), Madhya Bharat, Vindhya Pradesh and Bhopal states.
On November 1, 1956, the legislative assemblies of all four erstwhile states were also merged to form the reorganised Madhya Pradesh Vidhan Sabha.
