SAMBA: MLA Samba Surjeet Singh Slathia on Sunday lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi for steering the nation to highest pinnacles of progress and development with focus on ensuring that the benefits of welfare schemes percolate down to last person in the society.
“The Prime Minister’s vision of Atma Nirbhar (self-reliant) Bharat is Sashaktikaran (empowerment) of all, irrespective of religion, region or caste, as per his cherished agenda of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas”, Slathia said while interacting with the people at the sidelines of launching macadamisation of road from S.C Ward Kamila to Utter Behni Road Kamila under City Town Scheme.
He said it is with this mantra that every BJP Karyakarta is reaching out to the people, aware them about the schemes tailored by the government for their welfare, listen to their problems and make every effort in getting these resolved by taking up the grievances or issues with appropriate forums in the administration. Slathia said the commitment of the Prime Minister to public welfare keeps every worker on mission mode to be amid them like a family. This inspiring ethos of the BJP is a major irritant for the INDI Alliance especially the Congress and its allies National Conference and the PDP, which is why they are channelizing all their negative energies towards maligning the BJP.
Now that the NC- Congress have come together, they have to fulfill all the promises made during elections as mere rhetoric will not be enough, he said adding that the people are keenly watching the government’s performance on every front.
Slathia, who is also BJP Pradesh Vice President, referred in detail to the path-breaking initiatives like Ayushman Bharat, OneNation-One Ration Card, StartUp, Digital Bharat, Beti Bachao Beti Padhao, Jan Dhan Yojana, Izzat Ghar programme and much more, saying these schemes have changed the lives of the people.
He said the health cover of Rs 5 lakh each is available to over 50 crore families across the country apart from senior citizens above 70 years, irrespective of their financial status. Under this scheme, the entire population of Jammu and Kashmir is covered , as a special dispensation, he added.
Earlier, Slathia kick started the macadamization of road from S.C Ward Kamila To Utter Behni Road Kamila under City Town Scheme at an estimated cost of Rs 20 lakhs.
Prominent among those present on the occasion included Ex Sarpanch Mukhytyar Singh, Onkaar Nath Sharma and other senior others.
