Chandigarh, January 25
Haryana Education Minister Sh. Mahipal Dhanda, in a statement issued on the completion of 100 days of the Haryana Government, said by giving jobs to 24,000 youths of the state without ‘kharchi-parchi’, the Nayab Singh Saini government has made a special place in hearts of the youth. More jobs will be given and employment fairs are being organized to make the youth self-reliant.
Ensuring welfare of women
The Education Minister said the government is leaving no stone unturned to promote welfare of women. Prime Minister Sh. Narendra Modi recently launched the Bima Sakhi Yojana from Panipat. Under this scheme, women will be given a monthly salary of Rs 7000 in the first year, Rs 6000 in the second year and Rs 5000 in the third year. Along with this, commission and incentive amount of Rs 2100 will also be given every month. This is a revolutionary step for making women self-reliant.
Farmers are becoming self-reliant
Sh. Mahipal Dhanda said the Nayab Singh Saini government has taken revolutionary decisions in the interest of farmers. The government made three laws in the interest of farmers in the first Assembly session itself. The government also took steps to reduce the financial burden on farmers due to less rainfall and put money in the accounts of farmers at the rate of Rs 2000 per acre for sowing of Kharif crops. The government also made a compensation policy for high tension power lines passing through the farmers’ fields. There are many such schemes, including Bhavantar Bharpai Yojana and Crop Insurance Scheme, which have been implemented in Haryana and farmers are getting direct benefit from this.
Benefit to every section of society
The minister said the BJP government formed with majority for the second time in the state worked for every section. The monthly pension of ‘matrabhasha satyagrahis’ was increased from Rs 15000 to Rs 20000. Along with this, the honorarium of Anganwadi workers was increased by Rs 750 and the honorarium of assistants was increased by Rs 400 per month. Maharana Pratap Horticulture University is also being built in Uchani, Karnal for which Rs 700 crore will be spent. Another achievement that the government has achieved is that Haryana has reached the top among the big states with an increase of 28 percent in GST collection, the minister added.
