Jammu- Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha said on Friday that 5 marla land to poor landless beneficiaries under PMAY (G) by his administration will raise living standards of poor, vulnerable landless families, remove the existing societal imbalances and lead to their economic and social prosperity.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi is committed towards 100% saturation of government schemes and reaching out to the unreached. It provides a significant opportunity to rural and urban areas to ensure the common man and vulnerable section is empowered,” Sinha said.
He made these remarks at the ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’ held at Panchayat Dhok Waziran in Nagrota here on Friday.
The LG highlighted the efforts of the J&K Government to ensure benefits of welfare measures reach the poor and weaker sections of society.
“UT administration is providing 5 Marla land to poor landless beneficiary under PMAY (G). This will raise the living standards of poor, vulnerable landless families, remove the existing societal imbalances and lead to their economic and social prosperity,” he said.
Congratulating the PRI representatives and people for their enthusiastic participation in Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’, the LG urged them to reach out to maximum number of families, generate awareness about Government schemes and encourage enrolment of potential beneficiaries.
He emphasised the need to replicate the best practices of Panchayat Dhok Waziran to develop model villages in a holistic way for better livelihood options, improved quality of life and action-oriented Jan-Bhagidari for a happy, prosperous and peaceful Panchayat.
Sinha urged the people to actively participate in ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’, avail the on-spot services being provided and disseminate the information about schemes.
“Individual success stories must reach out to every nook and corner of UT to highlight the transformation brought about by the government’s flagship schemes in their lives,” he said.
“Through integrated action and involvement of every individual we can turn the villages into viable, sustainable economic centres and create opportunities for youth, women, farmers and vulnerable sections to accomplish the vision of Viksit Bharat,” he added.
Raman Wazir, Sarpanch Panchayat Dhok Waziran and beneficiaries from the Panchayat also shared their experiences and expressed gratitude to the administration for extension of benefits under various government schemes.
The LG visited the stalls put up by different departments, witnessed the demonstration of drones, and handed over the certificates of registration to the members of newly created Farmer Producers Organizations.
‘Hamara Sankalp Viksit Bharat’ pledge was also administered on the occasion.
