JAMMU, Sept 1: In order to take direct feedback on the implementation of various welfare and empowerment schemes of the Central Government, senior BJP leader and Convenor, Beti Bachao Beti Padhao J&K UT, Ritika Trehan today reached out to women and little girls from marginalized sections of society.

During the interaction, Trehan sat with the women and girl children, listened to their experiences and personally enquired whether the benefits of welfare schemes were reaching eligible families at the grassroot level.

She specifically reviewed the reach of schemes and initiatives including free ration, Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana, Ayushman Bharat health cards, girls’ education and Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana.

The BJP leader expressed satisfaction that a number of families were benefiting from these initiatives, while noting that some families still require guidance and handholding to access the benefits available to them.

Speaking on the occasion, Trehan said, “Women and girls from economically weaker and marginalized sections must remain at the centre of welfare and empowerment initiatives. Awareness and last-mile delivery are equally important for ensuring that no eligible beneficiary is left behind.”

“Public service is not merely about framing policies; it is about ensuring that the benefits of those policies reach the last person in the line. This is the spirit of Antyodaya envisioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi Ji,” she said.

She assured the women that their concerns would be noted and that all possible assistance would be extended in guiding them towards the appropriate welfare schemes and benefits.
