“This is the aim of schemes providing basic facilities such as ‘pucca’ houses, toilets, gas connections, electricity, water, roads to villages and the poor people. The country has achieved great success in these schemes but now it is time to achieve saturation of these schemes, to realise the aim of these schemes 100%,” PM said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi also dais to achieve this goal there is need to adopt a new strategy for monitoring and accountability, and while making use of technology, new systems have to be developed. In budget 2022, a clear roadmap has been given by the government to achieve this goal of saturation, PM Modi said.
