Haryana School Education Minister, Sh. Kanwar Pal said that the Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra has been started with the aim of ensuring the reach of the major schemes of the government, so that the benefits of these schemes can reach all the beneficiaries in a time bound manner. He emphasized the government’s goal of integrating individuals standing at the forefront of development into the mainstream of society.
He stated that the government is actively taking commendable steps to provide fundamental facilities to marginalized people, ensuring that the benefits of developmental and welfare schemes reach the last village and the last individual.
Speaking at a programme organized in the villages of Mukarampur, Khilanwala, Urjani, and Baloli in the Yamunanagar district on Saturday as part of the ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’, Minister, Sh. Kanwar Pal conveyed the government’s commitment to reaching the benefits of development and welfare schemes to the last person and the last village. He emphasized that the development of the last individual in society is synonymous with the nation’s development.
Minister highlighted that the first right on government schemes belongs to the poor. The more schemes the government formulates for the poor, the happier society will be. The government is actively working for the development of the poor and marginalized.
He emphasized that the progress of farmers is essential for the prosperity of the country and the state. The government is ensuring the progress of farmers through innovative initiatives, from providing quality seeds to facilitating the distribution of their produce in the market. Minister Kanwar Pal, being from a farmer’s family himself, is well aware of the struggles and issues faced by farmers. Therefore, he is personally overseeing the implementation of government schemes at the ground level to ensure maximum benefit for the farmers.
During the ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’ programmes, individuals benefiting from the schemes commended the government initiatives by sharing their experiences. Those who, for various reasons, were deprived of schemes are now being ensured the benefits through on-the-spot distribution of scheme benefits near the ‘Modi Ji Ki Guarantee ki Gadi’, he added.
During the Vikas Bharat Sankalp Yatra, people are seen becoming aware about health checkups. People are satisfied with information about Nirogi Haryana, Ayushman Bharat, and TB Mukt Bharat Abhiyan and other such health schemes. Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra is moving forward in the direction of making India a strong, prosperous and empowered nation by taking the pledge of developed India. During the yatra, more than 23 lakh people have administered oaths to make India a developed India. The Yatra not only instils a sense of social and economic strength but also serves as an inspiration for all citizens to collaborate in shaping a prosperous future.
This initiative not only showcased the achievements of the government’s schemes but also recognized and appreciated the beneficiaries, allowing them to share their stories and experiences. Information about these schemes is disseminated through LED vans, and stalls are set up to create awareness and ensure that citizens avail themselves of the benefits provided by the government.
