BJP to launch an awareness campaign in Punjab on the Viksit Bharat G-RAM-G Scheme: Sunil Jakhar
Kanwar Inder Singh/ royalpatiala.in News/ January 4,2025
Bharatiya Janata Party’s State President Sunil Jakhar said that the party will launch an awareness campaign from January 7, 2026, to inform the public about the Viksit Bharat-Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB-G RAM G) Act, 2025, which has been formulated in the interest of the poor.
In a statement issued here, he said that the campaign will begin from Fazilka district. He added that the Government of India, under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, has always followed the policy of “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” (Together with all, development for all), and this scheme has also been designed in line with the same policy for the welfare of the poor.
Sunil Jakhar said that while the government has increased the number of guaranteed employment days for the poor from 100 to 125, the new scheme also fixes accountability in cases where work is not provided to labourers. He said that with the implementation of this scheme, corruption will be curbed and the entire wage amount will directly reach the labourers’ bank accounts. He added that this is precisely the reason why the AAP government and the Congress are opposing this new pro-poor scheme and spreading falsehoods about it in society.
He further said that during the campaign, the BJP will expose the misleading propaganda being spread by the Aam Aadmi Party and the Congress against this welfare scheme for the poor, and will make labourers aware of the truth. He pointed out that in the past, no one was held accountable for failing to provide 100 days of employment to labourers, but under the new law, accountability will be fixed and the rights of the poor can no longer be denied.
Sunil Jakhar alleged that the AAP government is indulging in false propaganda against the scheme to cover up its own failures and divert attention from real issues, and that the BJP will break this web of misinformation through an extensive public awareness programme.
