Thre are various Central as well as State Government’s good schemes going on for the BPL benefecieries.

But the quality of BPL data is dismal.Influential people and by bribing the talatis and other government officials,people are  getting the benefits of these schemes which are meant for BPL families, and the real poor are not getting the benefits.

Various health schemes like RSBY, Chiranjeevi yojna , Balsakha yojna ,various agricultural schemes,irrigation schemes, subsidies, Food and ration schemes etc are totally dependent on the BPL data what the state provides.

Have you undertaken any study , how authentic is the BPL data , whether they can be manipulated while providing service under various schemes and whether people are misusing various schemes or not, so that the real BPL should atleast get the benefit of the schemes? If not why?

Why the taxpayer’s money is being wasted in such various schemes which is so much dependent on the BPL data ,and the data itself is faulty or can be manipulated by corruption,influence,etc at the time of service delivery to the benefecieries in various government schemes?

    In Gujarat Mr. Modi running a 15000 crores scheme named Vanbandhu Kalyan Yojana.All other schemes as stated above are running under this scheme.The motive of the scheme is to change lacs of families from BPL to APL.Till date crores of rupees spent.In some schemes the government put crores of rupees on NGO’s hand.In contract terms with NGOs the target must be achieved compulsory.But after some years what is the reality?The result is a Big Zero.Tax payers crores of rupees gone to waste!!! ‘KHATO NATHI KHAVA DETO NATHI’

    Hi,

    While this application can be filed using the text given by you. In my opinion, the reply will only give you the views of the PIO. It would be effective if you can frame the questions or modify the application to specifically demand answers which can either force the authority to take action or can help you to further your fight.

    Please let us know if you, instead, like to proceed with this application.

    Regards,
    AKP
