Lucknow,
06 Jan (HS): Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said today that the central
government has taken important steps to create sustainable employment during
the winter session of Parliament. The passage of this Act is a significant step
for rural development. We welcome the Viksit Bharat, Ramji Act and
express our gratitude to Prime Minister Modi. Chief Minister Yogi also attacked
the opposition.
Addressing
a press conference held at the Lok Bhavan of the NDA government in Uttar
Pradesh on Tuesday, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the mandatory
employment period under the scheme has been increased from 100 to 125 days.
Payments will be made weekly. Delays in payments will be charged with interest.
He
said that if those who abandoned the country to suffer the pangs of poverty
support such a move, their true identity will be exposed. The public will also
ask them, What have you done? Instead of supporting a step taken in
the interest of the country, villages, and the poor, they are opposing it. The
foundation of a developed India can only be laid by strengthening the rural
economy. Chief Minister Yogi said, I welcome this and express my
gratitude to Prime Minister Modi.
Chief
Minister Yogi Adityanath said that employment is guaranteed through Ji Ram Ji.
Now an online system for filling attendance has been made. Money will be sent
through DBT. The game of making payments in fake names has now stopped forever.
Remember the SP rule, there was a scam in MNREGA in Sonbhadra. We express our
gratitude to Prime Minister Modi, Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan,
and the Union Cabinet for passing the Ji Ram Ji Yojana Act. The Uttar Pradesh
government welcomes and supports it. Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad
Maurya, Brajesh Pathak, Minister Om Prakash Rajbhar, Minister Sanjay Nishad,
Minister Ashish Patel, Minister Anil Kumar, RLD leader Rajpal Baliyan were
present on this occasion.
