“The successful implementation of the welfare schemes will definitely result in overall growth and development of the state”, the MLA said.

It may be mentioned that so far, 20, 887 beneficiaries were registered under the PM-KISAN scheme. The scheme with 100 per cent central government funding became operational December 1, 2018.
