Haryana Government's Efforts To Empower Farmers, Poor Highlighted

Chief Minister Manohar Lal highlights schemes under PM Modi's leadership boosting welfare for farmers, women, and youth in Haryana.

Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal said that the government is working to empower the poor, farmers, labourers, women, and youth. Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, many schemes are being run for their welfare. This has increased people's faith in the government.

On Friday in Bhiwani, the Chief Minister sent Rs 135 crore as compensation for damaged crops in Rabi-2024 to over 54,000 farmers through the E-Fasal Compensation Portal. He also released Rs 131.24 crore to 3,527 beneficiaries under the Deendayal Upadhyay Antyodaya Parivar Suraksha Yojana.

In the last 10 years, the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana has helped farmers under Modi's leadership. The previous Congress government gave only Rs 1,100 crore as compensation for crop damage in 10 years. In contrast, the current government has given Rs 12,500 crore in nine and a half years.

When DAP prices increased in 2008 and 2009, the Congress government doubled their prices without helping farmers. But when international prices rose recently, Modi's government decided to bear the cost and provided subsidies.

The opposition claimed this government is anti-farmer and would end MSP. However, the Central Government recently increased MSP to benefit farmers. In Haryana, the government procures 14 crops on MSP.

During Bhupinder Singh Hooda's tenure as Chief Minister, farmers received cheques of Rs 2 or Rs 5 as compensation. Now, farmers receive cheques of up to Rs 50,000 for crop damage due to natural calamities.

For the third time in a row, Narendra Modi took oath as Prime Minister and immediately worked for farmers' welfare. He provided Rs 20 thousand crore under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana and planned to build houses for 3 crore poor families in five years.

Farmers are producing more now than in 2014, and the government buys their produce at MSP. The state government offers subsidies for buying agricultural equipment like tractors and rotavators.

The Central Government linked mandis with e-NAM so that farmers can sell their produce at profitable prices. The government supports all sections of society and will not let them face problems.

Finance Minister J.P. Dalal said that Chief Minister Manohar Lal is continuing efforts for farmers' welfare. The Haryana government has provided free travel up to 1,000 kilometers within a year to 80 lakh Antyodaya people through the Happy Yojana.

Youth have received jobs on merit without any expense under this government. The Congress stopped recruitment by going to court, but the BJP will ensure jobs remain intact by going to the Supreme Court.

The BJP is a farmer-friendly government. For the first time since 1962, people have blessed the NDA government under Modi's leadership for three consecutive terms.

MLA Kiran Choudhary from Tosham praised the Deendayal Upadhyay Antyodaya Parivar Suraksha Yojana for helping poor families. She said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi aims to develop India by 2047 and that Haryana will progress quickly with these efforts.

BJP will continue working for public interest and form a strong government in Haryana. On this occasion, MP Chaudhary Dharambir Singh and Additional Chief Secretary of Finance Department Anurag Rastogi were present along with other dignitaries.
