During the same period in the last financial year, 7,573 km of roads were built, with a speed of 26.11 km per day. The ministry said that it is expected that with such speed it will be able to surpass the construction target of 11,000 km by 31 March.
A big decision has been taken in the general budget for the well-being of women, the path to progress will open.
The Union Government has taken a major step towards the health and empowerment of rural women by announcing one crore more gas connections during the next financial year through the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana in the budget.
The scheme has been one of the ambitious projects of the current government. In view of the positive effects of the scheme, the government has announced an expansion in the budget.
Obviously, the government does not want to leave any stone unturned to provide clean fuel, better life to the citizens.
In fact, the government wants to reduce its dependence on the traditional sources of firewood by providing cheap LPG services to BPL families.
The goal of the Ujjwala scheme is to take care of the health of women and children by making the kitchen of the poor free of smoke.
Now women do not have to go far to search for firewood. They are also getting rid of poisonous smoke coming out of the stove.
