    Chandigarh: Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Thursday said the state government has launched several developmental projects and public welfare schemes in the last eight-and-a-half-years, benefits of which are being availed by the people.

    The Parivar Pehchan Patra (PPP) scheme has been appreciated by many states and they have also shown interest in studying it, Khattar said while addressing a gathering after the inauguration of BJP’s newly constructed office ‘Karna Kamal’ in Karnal’s Sector 9.

    The PPP, a family information data depository, is an e-governance scheme aimed at promoting paperless and faceless delivery of services to citizens, according to the state government.

    Khattar said that on the basis of a survey done through the PPP, 12.50 lakh new BPL (Below Poverty Line) ration cards have been made in the state.

    Continuing the state government’s tradition of celebrating the birth anniversaries of great men and sages, a state-level programme was held to celebrate Guru Gorakhnath Smriti Utsav, an official statement said.

    During the programme, Khattar announced the establishment of a research chair at Baba Mast Nath University, Asthal Bohar, Rohtak in the name of Guru Gorakhnath, naming an educational institute after him

    Khattar also announced the inclusion of the biography and teachings of Guru Gorakhnath in the school curriculum with the objective of making the younger children aware of the teachings of his teachings.

    He said the government plans to honour the instrumentalists playing traditional musical instruments and is in the process of formulating a pension scheme.

    “Our saints and great men have always played a significant role in removing social evils. Even today, their teachings hold relevance and for this reason, only ‘Sant Mahapurush Vichar Samman Evam Prasar Yojana’ has been launched,” he said.

    “The Government plays a significant role in spreading the message of communal harmony and peace and teachings of saints and great men among the masses,” said Khattar.

    Speaking at a party event, Khattar said that today the BJP has become the largest political party in the world whose number of active members is more than the total population of many countries.

    He urged the party workers to take the policies and schemes of the government to the masses so that the people can get the benefits of these schemes.

    He also said that to take feedback on development works and government schemes from the people, ‘Jan Samvad’ programmes have been started across the state.

    On the occasion, former minister and BJP state president, O P Dhankhar, Gharaunda MLA, Harvinder Kalyan were also present.

  • MGNREGA becoming victim of BJP-led govt’s repressive policies: Rahul Gandhi

    MGNREGA becoming victim of BJP-led govt’s repressive policies: Rahul Gandhi

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi slammed the BJP-led government on Friday for reducing the MGNREGA budget and alleged that the scheme, which was the foundation of India’s rural economy, is becoming a victim of the Centre’s repressive policies.

    He also accused the government of misusing Aadhaar against the poor sections of the society by linking it to the scheme under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA).

    “MGNREGA is the foundation of India’s rural economy. A revolutionary policy that has supported countless families. The MGNREGA scheme, which is running the homes of crores of families, is becoming a victim of the repressive policies of the Centre,” Gandhi said in a Facebook post in Hindi while citing a news report.

    Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge also hit out at the Centre for “axing” the MGNREGA scheme, saying the poor will never forgive the Narendra Modi government.

    “Modi government’s axe is working on MGNREGA. A 33-per cent cut in the MGNREGA funds in the budget. The minister said MGNREGA is not a scheme to provide employment. States will have to pay 40 per cent money for the Centre’s 100 per cent work.

    “Narendra Modiji, don’t finish MGNREGA, the poor will not forgive,” Kharge said in a tweet in Hindi.

    Gandhi alleged that first the budget for the MGNREGA was cut and now, the linking of salaries with Aadhaar is being done, and said “both these are attacks on the income of the poor”.

    The Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government’s vision for the Aadhaar card was to provide convenience, identity and economic security to people. But the present government is not only misusing this thinking, but also using it against the poor, the former Congress chief alleged.

    In his Facebook post, the Lok Sabha MP from Wayanad in Kerala said, “57 per cent of rural labourers will lose their daily wages if Aadhaar card is made mandatory for MGNREGA. They (government) do not have any policy to provide new employment. It has become the intention of this government only to take away the employment of people and create difficulties for the poor to get their rightful money.”

    “No new idea, no plan. Just one policy — torture the poor,” he added.

  • Ready to face early polls if BJP-led Centre dissolves LS: BRS’ KTR

    Ready to face early polls if BJP-led Centre dissolves LS: BRS’ KTR

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: Alleging that the NDA government at the Centre shows step-motherly treatment towards Telangana, ruling BRS leader K T Rama Rao claimed his party is ready for early elections to the Parliament and the state assembly if the BJP dissolves the Lok Sabha, showing its willingness for polls ahead of schedule.

    The BJP-led government has not announced any new institution or funds to Telangana and not even delivered on the promises made to the state in the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act, he alleged.

    The NDA government waived off loans for its “corporate friends”, he alleged. “…especially those in BJP in the state, they talk big. If they have guts, let them dissolve Parliament. Then, we can go for early polls together,” he told reporters in Nizamabad on Saturday.

    “They say ‘sab ka saath, sab ka vishwas’. But, their actions are ‘sab kuch bakwas’ (all rubbish). The value of rupee is moving towards the ‘pathalam’ (abyss), the debt is mounting towards the sky. Such is the situation prevailing in the country today,” he said.

    The BRS and BJP have been engaged in political one-upmanship ahead of Assembly polls to be held towards this year-end.
