The Atmanirbhar Bharat Swayampurna Goa scheme was launched on October 1 last year with the aim to make the villages self-reliant. This programme is inspired by the Prime Minister's clarion of Atmanirbhar Bharat.

Atmanirbhar Bharat Swayampurna Goa Scheme
Under the Atmanirbhar Bharat Swayampurna Goa scheme, a state government officer is appointed as “Swayampurna Mitra.” This Mitra visits a designated municipality or panchayat, interacts with people, coordinates with multiple government departments, and ensures that various government schemes and benefits are available to the eligible beneficiaries.
The scheme was kept on a halt from May 2021 because of increased covid cases and resumed in July 2021.
Earlier Sawant had emphasized the necessity for adopting various sustainable measures to gain economic empowerment for the villages.
“In addition to these goals, few more were added which include a number of disabled persons in the area, number of senior citizens, number of families undertaking agriculture, people dependent on fisheries business, animal husbandry, etc,” Sawant had said in February 2021 during a review meeting of the scheme.
