CM says Jharkhand government is focused on reaching out to last mile with welfare schemes

Jamshedpur: Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren reminded people of the starvation deaths during the erstwhile BJP-led government and patted his own government as nobody died of hunger even during the Covid lockdown.

Addressing a gathering at Godda on Wednesday evening, Soren said the development works done during the “double engine” government (a term used by his predecessor Raghubar Das to describe BJP government at Centre and state) was only on paper.

“We still remember the starvation deaths during the previous government as the development works were done only on paper. Our government is doing door-to-door work to benefit the people by making schemes suiting the interest of the local. Even during the Covid lockdowns in the last two years our government did not allow a single person to die of hunger and provided food through sahiya didis and sevikas to the poor,” said Soren.

A survey done by Right to Food Campaign between 2017 and 2020 had alleged that there were around 30 deaths due to starvation in different parts of Jharkhand during that period.

Soren added that the government is focused on reaching out to the last mile with the welfare schemes.
