ANANTNAG: In a resounding display of commitment to citizen welfare, the Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra (VBSY), a nationwide initiative dedicated to disseminating information about the Central Government’s flagship schemes, reached remarkable milestones during its impactful outreach in Anantnag district.Â
Despite the challenging weather conditions on Sunday, the Yatra successfully engaged local communities, imparting awareness and knowledge about various social welfare and development programs.
Over 10,000 enthusiastic participants on Sunday commended the Central Government for directly delivering the benefits of flagship schemes to the people. Nine events showcased the tangible impact of the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s initiatives, featuring beneficiaries of Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana, Ayushman Bharat, Kisan Samman Nidhi, PM PRANAM, Ujjwala Yojana, Jan Oushadhi, and Khelo India. These individuals shared their firsthand experiences under “Meri Kahani Meri Zabani.”
In a unique and interactive approach, five Day Nodal Officers conducted quizzes on the details of the flagship schemes, promoting engaging learning among participants. Drone demonstrations highlighted the effective use of technology to boost agricultural productivity.
Throughout the campaign, the Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra camps have become lively hubs, buzzing with activity as people eagerly participate in events and benefit from on-the-spot services.
Health camps, a vital component of the Yatra, provided screenings for 70,000 individuals, addressing health concerns such as TB, sickle cell anemia, and non-communicable diseases. Notably, 1600 individuals registered for the PM Ujjwala Yojana, showcasing the campaign’s success in spreading awareness about government welfare schemes.
This Yatra is more than a journey; it is a testament to UT Administration’s commitment to development, encouraging citizens to actively contribute. With over 5600 My Bharat volunteers and an impressive 1.85 lakh individuals pledging the transformative “Sankalp Pledge” in District Anantnag, recognition was given to 6000 outstanding contributors, including women, students, local artists, and sports personalities.
Beyond its agricultural focus, the Yatra actively engaged farmers through over 50 drone demonstrations and 7000 Soil Health Card demonstrations, promoting Natural Farming practices. Government flagship schemes marked victories, with 250 GPs reaching 100% JJM saturation, and 300 GPs attaining ODF+ status and 100 percent Digitisation of Land Records.
At the heart of this event were individual success stories, with over 5000 beneficiaries sharing “Meri Kahani Meri Zubani,” offering touching accounts of the transformative impact of government schemes in their lives.
