Haryana's Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment Krishan Kumar Bedi said that approval has been accorded to the creation of 1,260 posts of different categories including Block Social Welfare Officer for the 126 blocks.
The Haryana government said today that it has decided to set up social welfare offices in every block of the state to ensure effective monitoring and implementation of various schemes.
A sum of Rs 51 crore has been approved for the setting up of these offices.
Haryana's Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment Krishan Kumar Bedi said that approval has been accorded to the creation of 1,260 posts of different categories including Block Social Welfare Officer for the 126 blocks.
Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar had earlier announced at Meham in district Rohtak that social welfare offices would be set up at block level.
The setting-up of block level social welfare offices would prove to be effective in monitoring and implementation of the schemes being run by the department, Bedi said.
The department spends about Rs 5,000 crore annually on all schemes. The average number of beneficiaries per block in all schemes of the department is about 20,000 while average expenditure per block is about Rs 40 crore, he added.
The minister said that in most of the social security schemes run by the department, close and dynamic co-ordination is required with panchayats, banks, post offices, municipal committees and other district and block level offices from village to block level.
He said that the setting up of these offices at block level would help tremendously in ensuring effective monitoring and implementation of various schemes of the department.
