Udhampur (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], December 15 (ANI): Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra, a nationwide initiative to inform and empower citizens about government schemes, was held at Jib B Gram Panchayat of Jammu and Kashmir’s Udhampur district on Thursday.

While talking to ANI Sanjeev Verma, Secretary to the Government, General Administration Department, highlighted the transformative effect of the initiative. He noted that it has not only fostered trust among the people but also created a platform for them to learn about government schemes and voice their concerns.

“The biggest change that has come from this is that trust has developed among the people, they’re learning about the schemes and also putting forward the issues they’re facing,” Verma said.

As part of the nationwide initiative, the Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra aims to promote the vision of a developed and empowered India. MoS Bhoumik inaugurated the event in the Gomati district.

Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra is being undertaken across the country to attain the saturation of flagship schemes of the government by ensuring that the benefits of these schemes reach all targeted beneficiaries in a time-bound manner.
