Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that the family of all workers will get the benefit of Sambal-2.0 scheme. This scheme is remarkable as it benefit the beneficiaries in critical situations throughout their lives. The scheme is a support of the poor. Whether it is a matter of extending financial support at the time of accident or illness, in case of death of a family member of a beneficiary’s family, Sambal Yojana was launched to help workers through obstacles. The implementation of this scheme started in the year 2018. The previous government did not pay attention to the implementation of the scheme and withdrew it. The names of the beneficiaries were struck off from the lists. Many poor were deprived of its benefits. Now we have decided to implement it once again.
Chouhan today transferred the amount under Sambal Yojana to families of labourers of all the districts of the state with a single click from his residence office. Chief Minister Chouhan also interacted with the families of the labourers. Chouhan said that according to the philosophy of Pt. Deendayal Upadhyay, Sambal Yojana is being implemented afresh with the aim of reaching the backmost person of the society.
The Chief Minister on Monday transferred Rs 551 crore 16 lakh to 25 thousand 982 labourer families of Sambal Yojana and Rs 22 crore 23 lakh to 1036 construction workers through a single click, thus transferring Rs 573 crore 39 lakh to the accounts of the beneficiaries in total 27 thousand 18 cases.
Addition of new beneficiaries Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that the state government has launched a more beneficiary-oriented Sambal Yojana this time. Also, now the process of adding more beneficiaries to the scheme will also be started. Lakhs of tendu leaf pluckers of the state have also been included as unorganized labourers in the new registration process. Applications can be made through MP Online, Nagrik Suvidha and Lok Seva Kendras. In the Sambal-2.0 scheme, those workers who were declared ineligible earlier will also be able to apply afresh.
