WELFARE FOR ALL!
New Delhi: Noting that his government has made all-round efforts to ease the difficulties of farmers and each beneficiary has received Rs 30,000 crore under PM Kisan Samman Nidhi, PM Narendra Modi on Monday said that the governments in the past had a “narrow ambit” of the issues linked to farmers. The PM, who interacted with beneficiaries of ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’ via video conferencing on Monday, said that aim of Yatra is that no eligible beneficiary is left out of the govt schemes. “Since launch of ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra’, over 12 lakh new beneficiaries have applied for free gas connections under the Ujjwala scheme. Over 2 cr health checkups have been conducted, 1 cr people have been screened for Tuberculosis,” PM Modi said.
