GADAG

Banners containing information about the state government's five guarantee schemes should be installed in front of all ration shops in the district, said District Guarantee Scheme Implementation Authority Chairman BB Asuti.

He was speaking while presiding over the progress review meeting of the district-level guarantee schemes.

There should be no delay in providing the benefits of government schemes to the eligible beneficiaries. In this regard, the concerned officials should work honestly. In the wake of complaints about Annabhagya rice being sold illegally in the black market, he instructed the Food Department officials to take action to prevent such irregularities. Progress review meetings of the guarantee schemes should be held at the taluk and gram panchayat levels, he said.

Zilla Panchayat Chief Executive Officer S Bharat spoke and said that the heads related to the five guarantee schemes should review their proper implementation. He instructed to take steps to ensure that the facilities of the schemes are available to the eligible beneficiaries within the stipulated time, and said that the government facilities should contribute to the economic development of the common people.

Ashok Mandali, member of the District Guarantee Scheme Implementation Authority, said that under the guidance of District In-charge Minister HK Patil, we have been successful in delivering one of the five guarantee schemes. Efforts are being made to ensure full progress of other similar schemes. All the officers should take up the work in this regard, he said.

The officers concerned with the five guarantee schemes provided the information to the meeting.

BB Asuti directed that the officials should take steps to ensure that the facilities of the guarantee schemes reach the eligible beneficiaries as soon as possible.
