CM vows for inclusive governance, ensuring scheme benefits to last man of society

Chief Minister Prof. (Dr.) Manik Saha on Thursday said that the state government is earnestly working with the goal of delivering the benefits of various schemes to the last man of society, aligning with the direction set by the Central government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

"Whether it's Ayushman Bharat, Ujjwala Yojana, Jal Jeevan Mission, or Kisan Samman Nidhi, the Modi Ji-led Government has been diligently working to extend the benefits of various schemes to every individual in society. We have also been working in the same direction," said Dr. Saha.

On the completion of 15 days of Vikshit Bharat Sankalp Yatra, Prime Minister Narendra Modi interacted directly with Sankalp Yatra beneficiaries from different parts of the country through video conferencing from New Delhi.

The event was also telecast live via video conferencing at Lakshmipur village in Mandwi block of the state. Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha was present as a guest in the program at Lakshmipur Village.

On the completion of 15 days of the Vikshit Bharat Sankalp Yatra, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated an increasing number of Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Pariyojana kendra from 10,000 to 25,000 nationwide. He also launched the 10,000th Janaushadhi Kendra at AIIMS Deoghar and the Pradhan Mantri Mahila Kisan Drone nationwide to assist women and self-help groups.

On the occasion, Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha emphasized that the development of the last person in society is the government's top priority.

The Good Governance 2.0 campaign has been initiated since last November 15 to facilitate various schemes of the state government along with this program. With the aim of 100 percent success in these two programs, the responsibility of eight districts of the state has been assigned to the cabinet members," he said.
