Haryana chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Saturday announced the Mukhyamantri Shato Udyami Sarathi Yojana, under which five experienced persons of the society will be appointed as guides over a group of hundred families to help them to understand the schemes and improve their financial status.
Speaking on the occasion, Khattar said the scheme will be open for all who could volunteer for the service and devote time to the families.
He made this announcement after inspecting the Mukhyamantri Antyodaya Parivar Utthan Yojana Mela organised at the Ambedkar Bhawan in Ambala’s Naraingarh, where 20 government departments and six banks had set up different stalls to guide the beneficiaries.
At the mela, Khattar also distributed approval letters and bank cheques to as many as 15 beneficiaries and said his government is working to take forward the schemes to about 15 lakh families of Haryana with an annual income of ₹1.80 lakh.
“Giving loans to the poor under this scheme will not solve the purpose, rather it should also ensure that the people benefit from it. The motive of such schemes is to reduce the gap of inequality. Earlier, the schemes benefited only those who grabbed it first and those needy, were left behind. Now, we are bringing such schemes to every block-level for the beneficiaries, who are of dire need,” he told the gathering.
Under the scheme, melas have been organised at 175 different locations and drawn 90,000 people. In the second phase, these melas will be held till March 17 and in total, such fairs will take place in 10 phases.
Khattar later met six students and their families from Ambala district, who recently returned from Ukraine. The students expressed concerns about their studies suffering, but the CM assured of all possible support in this matter.
