The Minister was reviewing the detailed implementation of Central Government Schemes at Anantnag.

The Minister enquired about the status of the implementation of schemes like PM SVANidhi, PMAY Rural & Urban, MGNREGA, PMKisan, Ayushman Bharat (PMJAY/Sehat), etc.

Under PM SVANidhi, he stressed on the coverage of maximum vendors and timely disbursement of tranches to them. The Minister also emphasized coverage of farmers under KCC and stressed that the awareness of KCC among the fish farmers must also be done so that they will be able to avail credit under KCC from various available banks in the district for the development of their fish farms.
