Ziro, Feb 12: Minister Gabriel D. Wangsu on Thursday emphasised that the Viksit Bharat-Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB-G RAM G) Act has immense potential for rural development and realising the vision of a developed India.
Speaking at a Chaupal Baithak organised by the Bharatiya Janata Party, Arunachal Pradesh, in Ziro, Lower Subansiri District, Minister Wangsu urged the public not to misunderstand or allow themselves to be misled about the Act and its objectives.
"VB-G RAM G is a transformative initiative," said Wangsu, who holds multiple portfolios including Agriculture, Horticulture, Animal Husbandry & Veterinary, Fisheries, Legal Metrology & Consumer Affairs, and Food & Civil Supply. "There were many loopholes and lapses in the earlier MGNREGA. The new VB-G RAM G is transparent and most suitable for the Viksit Bharat vision."
The Minister lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the central government for introducing what he termed a "visionary initiative."
As part of the awareness campaign, Minister Wangsu flagged off a Tractor Rally ahead of the Chaupal Baithak. The rally saw participation from HMLA Shri Hage Appa, former Minister Shri Tage Taki, along with dedicated BJP leaders and party workers from across the state.
Both HMLA Shri Hage Appa and former Minister Shri Tage Taki also addressed the gathering, highlighting various aspects of the new employment and livelihood mission.
The initiative aims to reach every household in rural areas, ensuring that people are informed about the opportunities and benefits available under this transformative mission for employment and livelihood. The awareness campaign is expected to cover various districts of Arunachal Pradesh in the coming days.
The VB-G RAM G Act represents the government's renewed approach to rural employment generation and livelihood enhancement, marking a shift from the previous MGNREGA framework.
