In Jammu and Kashmir, six strategically located border villages in Kathua district have been brought under the Centre’s Vibrant Village Programme-II to strengthen development infrastructure and ensure full saturation of welfare schemes.
The villages including Bobiya, Kadyala, Gajnal, Karol Krishna, Rathua and Gujjar Chak along the International Border, were identified at a meeting chaired by Deputy Commissioner of Kathua Rajesh Sharma yesterday.
Emphasizing effective implementation, Mr Sharma directed officials to ensure timely execution of plans through regular monitoring and close inter-departmental coordination. He also stressed community participation and asked departments to conduct field-level verification, identify gaps and ensure last-mile delivery of all flagship schemes.
