JAMMU, Sept 18: Upliftment of weaker section of the society is sole aim of the present PDP-BJP Government in the State, as upliftment of this section can also contribute for the socio-economic development of the State and the country as well.
This was stated by Sukhnandan Choudhary, former Minister and MLA Marh. He was speaking during a financial aid distribution camp for weaker section organized by Rural Development Department at Gajansoo in Marh constituency.
During the programme, MLA provided financial aid to near about 23 beneficiaries for Rs 1,57,000 each. First installment for Rs 50,000 has been credited in their accounts directly, under Prime Minister Awaas Yojana (PMAY).
This total amount also include the cost of toilet i.e. Rs 12000 and Rs 15000 as labour cost under MGNREGA if the beneficiary will do labour at his own in construction of his house.
On the occasion, the MLA said that transparency and accountability has been the motive of State as well as Central Government. The former Minister exhorted BDO Marh and the beneficiaries to ensure judicious utilization of these funds only for construction of their houses, as any wrongdoing in this regard will amount to non release of next installment.
While lauding the vision of Prime Minister, Narendra Modi of weeding out corruption from the roots, he said that PM’s unique approach towards basic issues have succeeded in effective implementations of several innovative programmes launched during last three years.
He also appealed people to take maximum benefits of these schemes launched by Centre as well as State Government from time to time.
