Ranchi, August 19 (HS). On the occasion of Rakshabandhan, the holy festival of unbreakable love, affection and trust between brother and sister, Chief Minister Hemant Soren has posted on his X handle.
▪️To give rights and respect to half the population of the state, your brother and son and the Jharkhand government have implemented many historic schemes in the last four and a half years.
▪️Under the Jharkhand Mukhyamantri Mainiya Samman Yojana (JMMSY), more than 48 lakh sisters of the state will get an honorarium of 12 thousand every year. If I have 3-4 sisters in a family, then the honorarium for that family will be 36-48 thousand rupees in a year from this scheme alone.
▪️ Jharkhand is the first state in the country where the government is honoring widows, abandoned or single mothers and sisters above 50 years of age with a pension of one thousand rupees every month. This pension amount is becoming the support of old age for lakhs of mothers and sisters. This amount of 12 thousand rupees every year is making your old age support stronger.
▪️Your Jharkhand government has also worked to give wings to the dreams of 10 lakh adolescent girls of the state by connecting them with Savitribai Phule Kishori Samridhi Yojana. This assistance amount of Rs 40 thousand is helping every sister and daughter of mine to move forward.
▪️This is also the first time in the history of Jharkhand that thousands of crores of rupees have been given to lakhs of mothers and sisters associated with Sakhi Mandal in the form of bank credit/linkage. In the last four and a half years, an amount of more than 10 thousand crores has been provided to the sisters for livelihood promotion, which is 12 times more than the amount given by the previous governments. Many products manufactured by you under the Palash brand have created a buzz in the country and abroad.
▪️More than 35 thousand mothers and sisters of the state have been provided with alternative livelihood opportunities by connecting them with the Phool-Jhano Abhiyan. An amount of up to Rs 50 thousand has helped each of those mothers and sisters.
▪️Abua Housing Scheme, Sona Sobran Dhoti-Saree Scheme, Green Ration Card Scheme, Chief Minister Employment Generation Scheme, Birsa Green Village Scheme, Chief Minister Livestock Scheme, Bicycle Distribution Scheme etc. many such schemes are being run by your brother and the Jharkhand government for half the population of the state and other people.
▪️This small effort by the Jharkhand government for your dignity and self-respect will take a bigger form in the times to come and will continue uninterrupted.
Today, on the auspicious occasion of Raksha Bandhan, once again many congratulations, best wishes and johar to all the mothers, sisters and daughters.
