Benefits of HP Panchavati Yojana
CM mentioned that parks will prove a boon to senior citizens to lead healthy and happy life after taking health benefits from these parks. Moreover, HP state govt. was was striving hard to provide maximum facilities to the people of the state especially senior citizens and Panchvati Yojana is a major step in this direction.
The spread of Covid-19 pandemic has forced the policy makers to rethink and reformulate govt’s policies and programmes with special focus on rural development. Around 90% of the Himachal Pradesh population lives in rural areas and so the govt. is focusing on rural oriented policies which had been ensuring an accelerated pace of development in these areas.
CM directed state officials to effectively disseminate policies, programmes using social media. PR professionals should think out of the box for effective broadcasting of state’s policies and programmes. The govt. machinery should use latest technologies to publicize the various developmental schemes and success stories. Furthermore, developmental features should be brought out and provided to both print and electronic media.
