No poor family in Haryana will stay homeless: Saini
Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini Monday handed over 'interim' ownership certificates under the Mukhyamantri Shehri Awas Yojana and plot allotment letters under the Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana 2.0 to hundreds of beneficiaries. Speaking at the state-level function in Panchkula, Saini said, 'No poor family in Haryana will remain homeless. About 1,144 beneficiaries in Sector-23, Jagadhri received interim ownership certificates under Mukhyamantri Shehri Awas Yojana, while 3,884 rural beneficiaries received plot allotment letters across 58 villages under the Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana 2.0.' The CM added that beneficiaries were identified in a transparent manner. 'No favoritism, no recommendations were made, just need-based assistance was provided. It is a milestone in transparent and accountable governance. No irregularities or corruption were allowed in the implementation process. All data and procedures have been kept digital and transparent, and beneficiaries were selected entirely on merit'. Highlighting the role of a double-engine BJP government, Saini added, 'We have kept our promise, land has been provided, and financial assistance has been extended for house construction. This has only been possible due to strong coordination between the Centre and the State'. Sharing the key achievements of his government, the CM said, 'Under the first phase of the Mukhyamantri Shehri Awas Yojana, 15,256 families in 14 cities were already allotted 30-square-yard plots. A Rs 2.5 lakh subsidy per household is being provided under PMAY–Urban 2.0 for house construction. Besides this, in rural areas, under Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana–2.0, the process to allot plots to 1.58 lakh applicants in 561 villages is underway. Furthermore, Rural beneficiaries will receive Rs 1.38 lakh under PMAY–Gramin, Rs 12,000 for toilets under Swachh Bharat Mission, and 90 days of unskilled labour wages under MGNREGA.' 'Under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana-Gramin, so far, 69,150 houses have been built in rural areas with Rs 579 crore in assistance, while 77,900 houses have been constructed in urban areas under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana-Shehri with Rs.1,650 crore support,' Saini said. Taking a dig at the Congress, Saini said that even after being in power for 55 years, the party failed to bring real change for the poor. 'In the past, Congress promised plots to poor families but failed to provide proper documents or possession,' he said, adding, 'Before 2014, rural households did not even have access to LPG gas cylinders but Haryana is now providing gas cylinders to poor families for Rs 500.' Talking about the healthcare in Haryana, Saini said, 'The 'Ayushman Bharat Yojana' and 'Chirayu Haryana scheme' are now providing free treatment of up to Rs 5 lakh. So far, 22 lakh people in Haryana have benefitted, and Rs 2,500 crore has been spent on treatment.' Further refuting opposition's accusations on exorbitant collector rate hike, Saini reiterated, 'Some opposition leaders are claiming that the government is collecting Rs 5,000 crore in the name of collector rates. The truth is, in over 80 per cent of areas in Haryana, rates have increased by only 10 per cent. There is a process for this, under which the collector rate is renewed every year considering the highest registry as the basis. Spreading such lies is irresponsible.'

In over 80% of areas, collector rates have increased by only 10%: CM Saini
Chief minister Nayab Singh Saini on Monday launched a scathing attack on the Congress, asserting that despite 55 years in power post-Independence, the party failed to bring genuine change for the poor. Addressing a state-level programme in Panchkula, Chief minister Nayab Singh Saini contrasted the Congress's legacy with the transformative impact of welfare schemes implemented by the central and state governments under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. (HT Photo) Addressing a state-level programme in Panchkula, CM Saini contrasted the Congress's legacy with the transformative impact of welfare schemes implemented by the central and state governments under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. 'During the reign of the Congress, the poor became poorer,' Saini stated, emphasising that the current administration has delivered tangible benefits at the grassroots level. He specifically highlighted the discrepancy in housing initiatives. 'In the past, Congress promised plots to poor families but failed to provide proper documents or possession. Today, our government has not only given legal documents but also handed over the actual possession of 100-square-yard plots to beneficiaries,' he affirmed. Saini also challenged Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's skepticism regarding 'Jan Dhan' accounts. 'I challenge him to look at the data; he should see the figures of 'Jan Dhan' accounts, in which the poor have deposited their hard-earned savings in the last 11 years,' the CM said. Refuting opposition claims that the government is collecting ₹5,000 crore in the name of collector rates, Saini clarified, 'The truth is, in over 80% of areas in Haryana, rates have increased by only 10%. There is a process for this, under which the collector rate is renewed every year considering the highest registry as the basis. Spreading such lies is irresponsible.' At the event, Saini handed over 'interim' ownership certificates under the Mukhyamantri Shehri Awas Yojana and plot allotment letters under the Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana 2.0 to thousands of beneficiaries. He announced that 1,144 beneficiaries in Sector-23, Jagadhri, received urban interim ownership certificates, while 3,884 rural beneficiaries received plot allotment letters across 58 villages. Sharing further details on housing, Saini said that under the first phase of the Mukhyamantri Shehri Awas Yojana, 15,256 families in 14 cities had already been allotted 30-square-yard plots, receiving a ₹2.5 lakh subsidy per household under PMAY–Urban 2.0 for house construction. In rural areas, the process to allot plots to 1.58 lakh applicants in 561 villages is underway under Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana–2.0. Additionally, rural beneficiaries will receive ₹1.38 lakh under PMAY–Gramin, ₹12,000 for toilets, and 90 days of unskilled labor wages under MGNREGA. Development & panchayats minister Krishan Lal Panwar lauded CM Saini's leadership, noting that historic decisions are being taken for the welfare of the poor, youth, and women. He also mentioned that families with annual incomes up to ₹1.80 lakh would be provided 2 kW solar panels.

No poor family in Haryana will remain homeless: CM
CHANDIGARH Asserting that no poor family in Haryana will remain homeless, Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Monday handed over ownership certificates under the Mukhyamantri Shehri Awas Yojana and plot allotment letters under the Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana 2.0 to hundreds of beneficiaries. At a state-level programme held in Panchkula, Saini while reaffirming the government's commitment, said that no poor family in Haryana will remain homeless, underscoring the resolve of the government to ensure inclusive growth. The chief minister said that on Monday, 1,144 beneficiaries in Sector-23, Jagadhri received ownership certificates under Mukhyamantri Shehri Awas Yojana. As many as 3,884 rural beneficiaries received plot allotment letters across 58 villages in the state under the Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana 2.0, an official statement said. A home is more than shelter, it is a dream, a source of dignity and security, he said. Saini emphasised that these initiatives go beyond housing construction, they reflect the broader goal of empowering the weakest segments of society. Beneficiaries were identified transparently, ensuring that only the deserving beneficiaries get the benefit. No favoritism, no recommendations were made, just need-based assistance was provided, he stated, describing it as a milestone in transparent and accountable governance. Highlighting the role of a double-engine government, Saini said, "We have kept our promise, land has been provided, and financial assistance has been extended for house construction.

Saini said the state government has ushered in a new era of development, transforming not just housing, but also bringing revolutionary improvements in education, healthcare, employment, and basic infrastructure. "Youth are becoming self-reliant, women feel safer, and farmers are more prosperous. This is just the beginning. Our goal is that no family in Haryana should be without a roof over their head," he said. Speaking at the event, Development and Panchayats Minister Krishan Lal Panwar said several decisions are being taken for the welfare of the poor, youth, and women. Earlier, poor families could only imagine owning a house. But under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, over four crore homes have been provided to the needy across the country, he said. He said that in Haryana too, under the guidance of Chief Minister Saini, housing initiatives in both rural and urban areas have been fast-tracked. "Unlike previous governments, where plots remained on paper, today beneficiaries receive both registered ownership and possession," he added.

Saini flays Congress, highlights welfare schemes for poor
Chandigarh: Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini on Monday lambasted the Congress party and its leaders, saying that even after being in power for 55 years since Independence, the party failed to bring real change to the poor. During the reign of the Congress, the poor became poorer, while under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the central and state govts brought real benefits to the people through various welfare schemes at the grassroots level, Saini said while addressing a state-level programme in Panchkula. He said in the past, the Congress promised plots to poor families but failed to provide proper documents or possession. Today, our govt has not only given legal documents but also handed over the actual possession of 100-square-yard plots to the beneficiaries, said the CM. Saini said 1,144 beneficiaries in Sector 23, Jagadhri, received interim ownership certificates under the Mukhyamantri Shehri Awas Yojana, while 3,884 rural beneficiaries received plot allotment letters across 58 villages under the Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana 2.0. "A home is more than a shelter. It is a dream, a source of dignity and security," he said. The CM said the Congress' promises never turned into action. Before 2014, rural households did not even have access to LPG gas cylinders. Women struggled with smoke from wood-fired stoves, and getting a cylinder meant waiting in long lines for days, said Saini. Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the 'Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana' and ensured clean cooking fuel reached lakhs of homes, said the CM, adding that the state govt was providing gas cylinders to poor families for Rs 500. So far, 18 lakh families have benefitted from this initiative. "Prior to 2014, many women in Haryana had to walk kilometres just to get drinking water. For 55 years, no one paid attention to this hardship. But now, thanks to PM Narendra Modi, every household is being provided with tap water under the 'Jal Jeevan Mission'," said Saini. Those who ruled for decades are now pretending to care about the poor and spreading lies, saying the Constitution is under threat. The truth is our Constitution is completely safe. The only thing under threat is the Congress party itself, which is slowly losing relevance, said Saini. In the same breath, the CM questioned what Congress actually did in 55 years for the welfare of the common people. They mislead people with false promises. Rahul Gandhi mocks 'Jan Dhan' accounts, asking who will deposit money in these. I challenge him to look at the data. He should see the figures of 'Jan Dhan' accounts, in which the poor deposited their hard-earned savings in the last 11 years, Saini added. Saini, meanwhile, justified the increase in collector rates, saying in over 80% of areas in Haryana rates increased by only 10%. MSID:: 123097415 413 |
