CHANDIGARH, JUNE 7
The
Haryana Government has decided to implement a new scheme under which a native
of any village residing at any other place will be able to contribute to the development
activities of the village, depending upon his financial status.
A decision to this effect was taken in a meeting held under the Chairmanship of
a Chief Minister Mr. Bhupinder Singh Hooda here
today.
It was observed that although the people leave their native villages or
towns for business or other purpose yet their association remains
with their native places. However, they intend to spend money on carrying
out development works in their native villages after the name of their
ancestors.
Under the scheme such people would be able to make contribution in activities
like setting up of library, gym, construction of bus queue shelter, water
courses and cremation shed. Mr. Hooda directed that sanitation projects
should also be included in this scheme.
Mr. Hooda directed to organize a conference of such people in the State on the
pattern of that of the Non-resident Indians and also give advertisement in the
media for collecting information about those hailing from Haryana. Mr.
Hooda said that it is a good concept and the State Government would extend full
cooperation.
Mr. Hooda said that to give due respect to such people, a district level cell
should be constituted which would establish correspondence with them and seek
their contribution in the development activities in the villages. This would
further improve people’s faith in the Government, added Mr. Hooda.
The Chief Minister directed to constitute a four-member committee under the
Chairmanship of Principal Secretary, Development and Panchayat Department
Mr. Ram Niwas to prepare the modalities of the scheme.The other members of the
Committee would be Principal Secretary, Finance, Mr. Sanjeev Kaushal, Deputy
Principal Secretary to Chief Minister Mr. R.S Doon and Deputy Commissioner,
Jhajjar Mr. Ajit Balaji Joshi.
In the meeting Deputy Commissioner, Jhajjar Mr. Ajit Balaji Joshi suggested
that a society should be constituted at district level to monitor the corporate
social responsibility. Principal Secretary to Chief Minister Mr. Chhatar Singh,
Additional Principal Secretary Mr. S.S Dhillon, Deputy Principal
Secretary Mr. R.S Doon, Principal Secretary, Development and Panchayat
Department Mr. Ram Niwas and Principal Secretary, Finance Mr. Sanjeev Kaushal
were also present in the meeting.
