'Dignified Life Ensured To Banjara Community': PM Modi Distributes Title Deeds To Beneficiaries In Kalaburagi
The government will make the marginalised communities eligible to receive services like drinking water, electricity, roads, etc, said PM Modi
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday distributed title deeds (hakku patra) to the eligible beneficiaries of newly declared revenue villages in five districts of Kalaburagi, Yadgiri, Raichur, Bidar and Vijayapura districts at an event in Kalaburagi's Malked. About 1475 unrecorded habitations have been declared as New Revenue villages.
The issuance of title deeds to more than 50,000 beneficiaries, who are largely from marginalised communities, is a step to provide formal recognition from the government. The government will make the marginalised communities eligible to receive services like drinking water, electricity, roads, etc, said PM Modi.
After distributing title deeds, Prime Minister Modi while addressing a gathering at Malkhed said, "A party that has ruled this state for maximum time only focused on making a vote bank and never thought of the development of these families. Residents of Tanda have struggled for decades facing difficulties, but things have changed under the BJP government."
