MoS Ranjan to visit aspirational district Chandel
Imphal: As part of an outreach initiative of the Government of India, Union Minister of State for External Affairs & Education, Dr. Rajkumar Ranjan Singh is visiting the State on July 23 and 24. During the visit, Dr. RK Ranjan will visit the Aspirational District of Chandel and review various developmental parameters of the district, including access to primary education, healthcare facilities, electricity, safe drinking water etc. Financial Inclusion programs and skill development initiatives being undertaken by the District Administration will also be reviewed.
The visit of the Union Minister is part of the ongoing efforts being made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to obtain firsthand information on the difficulties and challenges faced by various Aspirational Districts across the North East States in implementing various centrally sponsored schemes and meeting developmental targets.
These visits also give a chance to understand best practices undertaken by some of the Aspirational Districts, some of which may be extrapolated for implementation in other districts facing developmental challenges of similar nature.
During his visit to Chandel, the Union Minister plans to meet and interact with local communities, to understand the efficiency of the District Administrations service delivery to the citizens.
It may be noted that the present Central dispensation has put service delivery to the last mile citizen, as a cornerstone of its Good Governance policy. This visit is a step towards trying to ensure efficient service delivery to the citizens.
It may be recalled that the Aspirational Districts Programme was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in January 2018, with the aim to quickly and effectively transform 112 most under-developed districts across the country.
Broadly the programme seeks convergence of Central & State Developmental Schemes, collaboration between various governance structures (Central, State level Prabhari Officers & District Collectors), and competition among districts through monthly delta ranking.
The ranking is designed on progress made across 49 Key Performance Indicators, under five broad socio-economic themes – Health & Nutrition, Education, Agriculture & Water Resources, Financial Inclusion & Skill Development and Infrastructure.
