Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Sunday said that reservation is a necessity at present.
“After getting the required support, when society moves forward, reservation will probably not be needed,” Khattar said while addressing the people during a rally organized at Hisar.
Vidhan Sabha Deputy Speaker Ranbir Singh Gangwa had organized the rally to felicitate the Chief Minister for providing eight percent reservation to Backward Classes-A.
The Chief Minister said that when the matter of giving reservation to Backward Class-A in Panchayati Raj was brought to his notice, he felt that this demand was justified and fulfilled it.
He said that the State Government will help all those who are in need. If a child who wants to study abroad, wants to become a doctor, engineer or do research, then parents will not have to give guarantee for the loan.
The government will give the guarantee, he added.
It is the priority of the State Government to ensure the overall development of the most underprivileged persons of the society by delivering the benefits of government schemes to them first, he said.
Manohar Lal said that there was a time when government jobs were given to people who had money but now recruitments are being made ‘Bina Parchi, Bina Kharchi’. Middlemen are excluded from the system now. Also, Antyodaya, Saral Kendra, e-Disha Kendra, and Atal Seva Kendra have been set up everywhere to deliver the benefits of government schemes to the general public. The amount of the schemes is sent directly to the eligible beneficiaries in their accounts, he said.
The Chief Minister further said that despite all this, he is still not satisfied. The system to identify eligible and ineligible still needs further improvement and for this Parivar Pehchan Patra are being issued.
52 percent of its registration work has been completed. The Parivar Pehchan Patra will carry the details of the family which will be used to identify the person and family who are still deprived of the benefits of the government schemes, Manohar Lal said.
Describing the backward society as craftsman and the working class, the Chief Minister said that this society is the foundation of our economy. At the time of Independence, the backward class society, which did the work of textile, jewellery, utensils and crafts, had a 24 percent share in our economy, but the skills of this class have not been able to develop as per the modern era, he said.
For this, the government has started Shri Vishwakarma Skill University at Palwal which has various courses, where the children of this class will get the most benefit. At present, four training centres are running for imparting training for hair salons, and beauty parlours, he added.
