State Government had rolled out the program of ‘Duare Sarkar’ on December 1, 2020. It was scheduled to run for two months until January 31. From Kanyashree, Sabujshree, Krishakbandhu to Swasthyasathi, Joy Jahar – Consumers are getting services almost immediately after applying to these camps.
In a very small period, the program witnessed the face of success. Previously, Banerjee had announced the success of the program when it reached over a crore of people in just two weeks. She had thanked and congratulated all the officials who made this possible. This time the state government climbed the ladder a bit more.
The Chief Minister tweeted that in just 29 days, the number of beneficiaries in the ‘Duare Sarkar‘ camp has reached 2 crores.
She tweeted that, “almost 90 Lakh people across West Bengal received different kinds of services. This includes 62 Lakh beneficiaries under Swasthya Sathi, 7 Lakh beneficiaries who received SC/ST/OBC certificates & 4 Lakh beneficiaries who received assistance under Krishak Bandhu.”
