Houses will be provided to villagers through Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana. Villages will be connected with roads and they will be given benefits of every scheme of the government. Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai said that the Government is starting a new scheme. Niyat Nelanar Yojana is being started in the Naxal affected areas of Bastar. Under this scheme, the Government’s plan is to reach the villages falling within a radius of five kilometres around the new security camps that are being started. Like the Primitive Tribes, the Government is trying to ensure that the benefits of government schemes reach those villages. Villagers will get the benefit of housing scheme, get the benefits of Ujjwala scheme and get sugar.

 

The villagers should get facilities like irrigation pump, hand pump, playground, electricity, ATM, forest rights lease, mobile tower and DTH. A provision of Rs 20 crore has been made to ensure that 32 individual schemes reach the people of these villages. The Prime Minister has launched the Pradhan Mantri Janman Yojana for the development of primitive tribes. A total of five tribes like Korwa and Birhor are included in it.

Maoists organise protests in those areas which are not accessible by road. Development facilities are not available. There should be distance from the Government. But people want development, said Sai. Congress MLA Kawasi Lakhma welcomed the scheme in the House.
