Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the Government is working
ceaselessly to bridge the gap between villages and cities. On the
occasion of National Panchayati Raj Day celebrations, addressing all the
Gram Sabhas and Panchayati Raj Institutions of the country today from
Rewa, Madhya Pradesh, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, Panchayats are
being made smart in this age of the digital revolution. Technology is
being harnessed in the projects being undertaken by the Panchayats, he
added.
Highlighting the importance of developing the social system, economy,
and Panchayati Raj system in the villages of India to create a developed
nation, the Prime Minister pointed out that the present Government is
working tirelessly to create a robust system in place and expanding its
scope, unlike the previous governments that discriminated with the
Panchayats.
Throwing light on the lack of efforts made by the previous governments
before 2014, the Prime Minister informed that the Finance Commission
granted less than 70,000 crore rupees which was a paltry amount when one
considers the scale of the country, but after 2014, this grant was
increased to more than two lakh crore rupees.
He also mentioned that merely 6,000 Panchayat Bhawans were constructed
before 2014, whereas the present Government constructed more than 30,000
Panchayat Bhawans in the last eight years.
He also informed that less than 70 Gram Panchayats were connected with
optical fiber compared to more than two lakh Gram Panchayats that got
optical fibre connectivity after the present Government came to power.
In this function, the Prime Minister laid the foundation stone and inaugurated projects worth more than 17 thousand crores.
Prime Minister Modi virtually attended the housewarming ceremony of four
lakh 11 thousand beneficiaries of Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana at the
function.
