PM to interact with beneficiaries of govt schemes at Shimla on Tuesday

Hamirpur/New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will interact with the beneficiaries of about 16 schemes and programs spanning nine Ministries and Departments of the Government of India’s part of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav celebrations.
The national-level event, named ‘Garib Kalyan Sammelan,’ will be held at Shimla on May 31, 2022, where the Prime Minister will directly interact with the beneficiaries from across the country through video-conferencing.
On this occasion, the Prime Minister will also release the 11th installment of Kisan Samman Nidhi amounting to more than Rs 21,000 crore.
Simultaneously, events will also be organized at State Capitals, District Headquarters and KVK Centres. Under this series of events, the scheme beneficiaries will interact with Chief Ministers, Central and State Ministers, Members of Parliament, Members of Legislative Assembly and other elected public representatives.
An official spokesman said today that the number of beneficiaries of many of these schemes runs in crores and in several cases, tens of crores, addressing the most pressing problems of the poorest segments of the population, including housing, availability of potable water, food, health and nutrition, livelihood and financial inclusion.
The interaction will explore the possibility of convergence and saturation of these schemes and give an opportunity to assess the citizens’ aspirations for India as it completes 100 years of independence in 2047.
The Sammelan will be one of the largest ever single-event nationwide interactions spanning all districts, where the Prime Minister will interact with beneficiaries about the impact that these schemes and programs have had on their lives.
Under the two-stage program, the State/District/KVK level function will start at 9:45 am. At about 11:00 am, these will get connected to the national level program. The national event will be telecast live through Door Darshan on its national and regional channels. Provisions have also been made to webcast the national program through MyGov for which people need to register themselves. It can also be viewed through other social media channels viz., YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.

It is expected that this interaction will not only highlight the people-centric approach of these schemes leading to ease of living for citizens, but will also enlighten the government on the aspirations of people and ensure that no one is left behind in the nation’s march to progress. (UNI)
