On Friday, Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra, focused on creating awareness of the Centre's welfare measures, was observed in different parts of the country.

The Yatra was flagged off from Maharashtra's Nanded, Uttarakhand's Champawat, UP's Barabanki, and other parts as well.

PM Narendra Modi launched the 'Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra' on Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas in the first week of November.

The Prime Minister also flagged off IEC (Information, Education and Communication) vans in Khunti, Jharkhand, marking the 'Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra' launch.

Each day, the vans will make two halts in important places, facilitating health camps, Aadhar enrollment, and other essential services.

The Yatra is meant for the districts with significant populations initially and by January 25, 2024, it will cover all districts across the country.

Designed as a multifaceted approach towards development, Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra aims to extend the advantages of government schemes to all segments of society, showcasing a concerted effort towards inclusive development.

Ground activities will include Jan Bhagidari events, such as interactions with beneficiaries, celebrations of Gram Panchayat achievements, on-the-spot quiz competitions, and health camps.

The goal of the Yatra is to raise awareness and facilitate the delivery of welfare scheme benefits, spanning sanitation, financial services, electricity, housing, and more.

Highlighted schemes include Ayushman Bharat, PM Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana, and PM Awas Yojana, among others.
