Three ambitious social security schemes, conceptualised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi were simultaneously launched in Itanagar on Saturday by Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju and Chief Minister Nabam Tuki.

The NDA government in its 2015-16 Budget announced the schemes including Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana, Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana and Atal Pension Yojana.

Terming the occasion as historic, Rijiju said that the schemes would bring a sea change in the life of the aam aadmi and would cover the deprived sections of the society.

"Despite 69 years of Independence, a major chunk of the people in the country are still deprived of the basic minimum needs and these social security scheme will help them to come into the mainstream and will get security," Rijiju pointed out.

He called upon the bankers to strictly implement the schemes with thorough monitoring and urged them to ensure that the benefits of the schemes reach the people in far-flung and inaccessible areas of the state.

Chief Minister Nabam Tuki while expressing his gratitude to the Prime Minister said that the schemes would immensely benefit the poor and working class.

While appealing the people to take full advantage of the schemes for their security, Tuki asked the bankers judiciously implement the schemes without any lacunae.

Earlier during the day, Rijiju accompanied by BJP state unit president Tai Tagak and Opposition Leader in the state assembly Tamiyo Taga launched the second phase of 'Maha Sampark Abhiyaan' and first phase of 'Maha Sadashyata Abhiyaan' at Namsai district.

The objective of the programme is to reach out personally to the members door to door and motivate them to work for the party and nation as a whole.

"No politics while working for the nation but needs audit for all the works," Rijiju said while addressing the people. He also elaborated on the Central government's policy of giving 100% works to the local contractors only and to encourage small contractors by giving 10% fund as advance against the scheme.
