Cabinet approves Garib Kalyan food grain programme for another 5 years
Wednesday, 29 November 2023 The union cabinet meeting, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, approved the extension of the PM Garib Kalyan Yojana for another five years. This scheme provides free grains to eligible citizens under the public distribution scheme. Initially started during the Covid pandemic, it aimed to provide additional food distribution to ration card holders. The PMGKAY scheme was launched in April 2020 to help the poor and needy during the economic disruptions caused by the pandemic. It has been extended in phases and has benefitted 80 crore beneficiaries. The Prime Minister announced the extension during an election rally.
On the 25th anniversary of the Kargil War, PM Modi paid tribute to martyrs in Drass, Ladakh, and defended the Agnipath scheme amidst opposition criticism. He accused detractors of historically neglecting soldiers and highlighted his government's achievements, including implementing One Rank One Pension (OROP) and allocating over 125,000 crore rupees to ex-servicemen. Modi criticized past governments for failing to build a war memorial or provide adequate bulletproof jackets and addressed rumors about the Agnipath scheme's pension implications.
