Rural development
In order to develop rural areas of Jammu and Kashmir, the central government has been very liberal with the funding. They want to change the socio economic condition of the rural population and give them a level playing field with the urban population.
Recently LG Manoj Sinha said that increased allocations for Rural Infrastructure & Rural Health reduced the inequalities and gap between urban and rural areas. He said that there is a visible change in the lives of the rural population in Jammu and Kashmir.
He said that his government is committed to ensure financial inclusion, and that the last man in the queue receives equal opportunity. Under Hon’ble PM’s guidance, our aim is to make development a powerful people’s movement in J&K.
He presided over the UT-level event in connection with Garib Kalyan Sammelan, held here at SKICC.
Pertinently, ‘Garib Kalyan Sammelan’ marks the completion of eight years of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi in office. During this one of the largest ever nationwide interactions, Hon’ble Prime Minister interacted with the beneficiaries of wide-ranging government run schemes and programmes, and received first-hand feedback regarding the impact of these schemes on the lives of beneficiaries.
The Hon’ble Prime Minister also released the 11th installment of financial benefit under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN) scheme. An amount of around Rs 21,000 crore to more than 10 crore beneficiary farmer families was disbursed.
