As the Manohar Lal-led government today completed successful eight years of ensuring holistic development of the state, the Chief Minister extended his best wishes to the people of the state and expressed the hope that he would continue to get the support and love of the public like this.
Meanwhile addressing a press conference held in Delhi, Sh. Manohar Lal presented the report card of his government.
"In these eight years, special focus has been laid on chalking out a three 'C' strategy to uproot Corruption, Caste and Crime. Besides this, the emphasis has also been given on promoting 5S ? Shiksha, Swasthaya, Suraksha, Swabhiman and Swavlambhan so as to ensure holistic development of Haryana," said Sh. Manohar Lal.
The Chief Minister said that the blueprint of development as shared by the Prime Minister has greatly inspired him to continuously work to bring radical changes in the working of the government and make the life of the citizens easier.
On this occasion, he also released a booklet on the government's achievements compiled by the Department of Information, Public Relations and Languages.
The Chief Minister said that in these last eight years dozens of radical changes have been brought in Haryana but the introduction of Parivar Pehchan Patra is on the top of eight highlights of his government.
"Through this one of its kind umbrella scheme, while considering the family as a unit, benefits of all the welfare schemes, programmes and services being run by the State Government are being given on a single platform. Today all the welfare schemes are being linked to PPP," said the Chief Minister.
Automatic disbursal of pension benefits is being ensured through PPP. As soon as a person attains the pension age, the pension automatically starts through PPP. Besides this, the work of making yellow ration cards is also being done through PPP. Initially, this scheme has been started on a pilot basis in districts Sirsa and Kurukshetra, informed Sh. Manohar Lal.
The Chief Minister said that in the first phase of 'Mukhyamantri Antyodaya Parivar Utthan Abhiyan', a target has been set to identify about 2 lakh such poor families having an annual income of less than 1 lakh. After identification, the government has set a target to increase the family income of such families upto Rs 1 lakh.
In a bid to give maximum benefit to such families, the annual income slab of BPL families has been increased from Rs 1.20 lakh to Rs 1.80 lakh. In this Antyodaya abhiyan, uplifting the poorest of the poor has been set as the utmost priority. In the three phases of Antyodaya Gram Utthan Melas, till now, loan sanction letters have been given to more than 33,000 poor families for self-employment. Besides this, job opportunities have also been provided to such beneficiaries in the private sector, informed Sh. Manohar Lal.
The Chief Minister informed that Haryana Government has made the 'Meri Fasal-Mera Byora' web portal. On this, farmers can fill in the details of the crop sown by them while sitting at home only. This initiative taken by the State Government not only saved the farmers from making several rounds of the government offices to get the said work done, but also proved instrumental in selling their crops, getting crop damage compensation and getting financial assistance for fertilizers, seeds, loans and agricultural equipment while sitting at home only. About 9 lakh farmers have registered on this portal in Rabi and Kharif seasons.
Chief Minister said that while focusing towards, Maximum Governance and Minimum Government, 572 services and schemes of 42 departments have been made available online.
