-PTI

 

Union Rural Development Minister Jairam Ramesh today said he would visit some of the Naxal-hit areas in Orissa to oversee implementation of different social welfare schemes like MGNREGA, PMGSY, IAY and National Rural Livelihood Mission (NRLM).

Ramesh, who would start field tour from tomorrow morning, was scheduled to arrive here this night. "Focus of my visit is to see implementation of rural development schemes in Naxal-hit districts of Orissa," Ramesh told Oriya news channels.

Stating that rural development activities were hit due to Left wing extremism, Ramesh said he would also meet the district magistrates of those districts. "I will like to know the problems faced by the district authorities in Naxal-hit areas," he said.

Implementation of Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) had been badly hit due to Naxal menace, he said adding the contractors were not ready to undertake work there.

The contractors often run away from mid of the work due to threat from the ultras, the Union minister pointed out.

"The government officials also fear to work in Naxal-hit areas, he said.

Jairam is scheduled to visit Ganjam and Kandhamal, two Naxal-hit districts in the state, sources said.
