Raipur, In Chhattisgarh, another guarantee of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been fulfilled as per the promise made to landless laborers. In our Chhattisgarh, a large population depends on agriculture but there are also people who do not have agricultural land and they earn their livelihood by doing agricultural labor. Keeping them in mind, we had also made a promise to the landless agricultural laborer brothers and sisters. We had said that we will give them financial assistance of Rs 10 thousand annually. Today we have fulfilled this promise. Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai said this while launching Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay Bhumiheen Krishi Mazdoor Kalyan Yojana in the auditorium located at New Circuit House today.
The Chief Minister said that a total of 5 lakh 62 thousand 112 beneficiaries of the state are going to get the benefit of this scheme. Under this scheme, we will provide five hundred 62 crore 11 lakh 20 thousand rupees to landless agricultural laborers. The Chief Minister said that our objective behind starting Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay Bhumihin Krishi Mazdoor Kalyan Yojana is to provide financial support to landless agricultural laborer families by increasing their net income. This scheme includes landless agricultural laborers along with landless families associated with forest produce collectors, shepherds, carpenters, blacksmiths, cobblers, barbers, washermen, etc. Pauni-Pasari system. Apart from these, Pujari, Baiga, Gunia, Majhi families who worship in the tribal temples in scheduled areas have also been included. Chief Minister Shri Sai distributed a cheque of Rs 10,000 to the landless laborer beneficiaries.
The Chief Minister said that through this historic step, the resolution we had taken for the economic prosperity of the landless laborer families of the state is being realized today. Shri Sai said that this scheme will not only strengthen their economic condition, but will also secure the education, health and future of their children. He said that our aim is that every poor and landless family of the state should be prosperous. This scheme will become a medium to bring positive change in their lives.

Chief Minister Vishnu Dev Sai said that most of the guarantees given by our illustrious Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the people of Chhattisgarh have been fulfilled by our government within just one year. On the second day of taking oath, in the first cabinet, we approved Pradhan Mantri Awas to 18 lakh needy families. Our government has also increased the scope of eligibility for PM Awas. Now those who have two-wheelers, two and a half acres of irrigated land or five acres of non-irrigated land, whose monthly income is Rs 15 thousand, will also be eligible for PM Awas. We have also started the survey work for Awas Plus in the state. It is the effort of our government that the benefits of good governance reach every citizen of Chhattisgarh.

The Chief Minister said that similarly, under Modi ji's guarantee, we had promised to buy 21 quintals of paddy per acre at the rate of Rs 31 hundred per quintal. Our government fulfilled every promise made to the farmers. In the current Kharif season, we are buying 21 quintals of paddy per acre at the rate of Rs 3100 per quintal as promised to the farmers. The support price is being paid to the farmers along with the purchase and the difference amount will be given in the month of February. The Chief Minister said that now when the farmer brothers are getting the full price of their produce, the farmers who had left farming are also returning to agriculture. We have increased the rate of tendu leaf collection from Rs 4000 per standard sack to Rs 5500 per standard sack, due to which more than 12 lakh 50 thousand tendu leaf collector brothers of the tribal area are getting benefited. We had promised to give one thousand rupees per month to mothers and sisters under the Mahtari Vandan Yojana under Modi's guarantee. 70 lakh women of the state are getting the benefit of this scheme. So far, financial assistance of Rs 7 thousand 182 crore has been given to mothers and sisters in 11 installments. Similarly, by starting the Ramlala Ayodhya Dham Darshan Yojana, till now we have sent 20 thousand devotees from Chhattisgarh for Ayodhya Dham Darshan. One by one we are fulfilling every promise made under Modi's guarantee.

Today I am very happy that the benefits of our promises are reaching you and our efforts are bringing smiles on your faces.
