The CM said that he has directed the officials to dispose the applications received in Janaspandana within three months.Clear instructions have been given to the officials to resolve the issues of the people.
This programme is organised with the intention to activate the administration to resolve the problems of the public.
The pro-people programmes of the Government should directly reach the beneficiaries.We have implemented all the guarantee schemes within 8 months of our inception.
BJP had commented that guarantee schemes cannot be implemented and Karnataka will be financially bankrupt.
They also commented that these schemes will be stopped later after implementing them initially.But people should not heed to such allegations, the CM said.
Guarantee schemes are pro people programme which aims to eliminates the inequality.We believe in the constitution and walk on the path of Basavadi Sharanas.
Fraternity and equality should be developed in the society and peace and harmony should prevail in the society. Some leaders of the state are commenting that these schemes will be implemented initially and later stopped.
But,These schemes are poor people’s programme and people should not heed to such rumours he said.
