Union Government launched PMUY in May, 2016 with tagline of Swachh Indhan, Behtar Jeevan. It aims at providing clean-cooking fuel to poor household.
This is one of the program launched by pm narendra modi which has became successful. Earlir narendra modi had explained about the successfulness of the PMUY.
While interacting with the beneficiaries from Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Jammu and Kashmir, Tamil Nadu and Assam, through video-conferencing, Modi said the scheme has not only made women self-reliant, but has also triggered their social transformation and upliftment.
He also urged the people to avail the benefits of other flagship schemes such as Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana and Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana, and went on to explain how these schemes would benefit people from across India, without discriminating on the basis of caste, class, religion or region.
Ujjwala Yojana has strengthened the lives of the poor, marginalized, Dalits and tribal communities, Modi said.
Modi also referred to the Gram Swaraj Abhiyan, which was organised across 21,058 villages, to spread awareness about the pro-poor initiatives by the government under seven programmes. The campaign was organized between 14 April and 5 May on the occasion of Ambedkar Jayanti.
The Prime Minister’s pitch to woo people from all communities comes in the backdrop of the protests by Dalits against the alleged dilution of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
