Haryana Government to develop road infrastructure in urbanized villages for farmers

Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar has announced plans to establish a scheme aimed at improving road infrastructure in villages that have been incorporated into urban areas. This initiative is designed to enhance transportation convenience for farmers, particularly in their efforts to transport crops from agricultural fields located in these urbanized villages.

Enhancing rural road infrastructure

Chief Minister Khattar made this significant announcement during a 'Jan Samvad' public outreach program held in Satrod Khas village in Hisar. He highlighted the government's existing 'Khet Khalihan' scheme, which focuses on paving roads leading to rural fields. Building upon this foundation, a new plan is in the works, specifically targeting the improvement of roads in villages that have become part of urban areas.

Pension disbursement process

During the Jan Samvad program, Chief Minister Khattar also emphasized the simplified process of pension disbursement through the 'Parivar Pahchan Patra.' This innovation allows elderly individuals to receive their pensions from the comfort of their homes, eliminating the need for office visits. The state government's introduction of online portals has enhanced transparency and efficiency in implementing various schemes, ensuring that eligible beneficiaries receive the benefits of government programs.

Projects in Satrod Khas Village

Chief Minister Khattar provided updates on ongoing and upcoming development projects in Satrod Khas village. He mentioned that work under the 'Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT)' scheme had already been completed in the village, which is now part of the Municipal Corporation Hisar.
