The MP emphasised on the implementation of welfare schemes like PM Matru Vandana Yojana, Janani Suraksha Yojana, Dulari Kanya Yojana etc put in place to benefit the womenfolk and children, saying that no one should be deprived of the schemes due to lack of information dissemination and knowledge about the schemes. He also stressed on the correct implementation of social assistance and poverty alleviation schemes.
"We have to work as ‘Team Arunachal’ to ensure wide coverage of CSS in the state and work towards timely data update in the Ministry’s web portal to reflect the true progress of work done in each district, to ensure the continuation and fund allocation under the schemes," Gao added.
The MLAs stressed on the need to improve the services provided by the banks, especially State Bank of India and the need to open additional branches of the bank in many parts of the state.

The Deputy Commissioners highlighted the performance of the respective districts in the implementation of MGNREGA, PMAY(Gramin), PMAY(Urban), NSAP, JJM, Digital India, Infrastructure related programmes, PMEGP, SVAMITVA, PM Kisan Samman Nidhi, One Nation One Ration Card, Ayushmann Bharat PM Jan Aarogya Yojana and Ayushmann Bharat Health and Wellness Centre etc.
