VB-G RAM G Act a symbol of transparency and accountability, claims BJP state president

The VB-G RAM G Act symbolizes transparency and accountability in rural employment schemes as it aims to address long-standing flaws that have plagued earlier schemes in the country, BJP State President N. Ramchander Rao said on Sunday.

Speaking at the VB-G RAM G workshop organized by the BJP Kisan Morcha at the party’s State office here, he said the Center has implemented the Act by integrating modern technology to plug loopholes and ensure transparency. He said the country was poised to become the third largest economy in the near future, and in this context, he argued that reforms in traditional welfare models were inevitable to align with changing economic realities, making the VB-G RAM G Act a necessity rather than an option.

The BJP leader questioned the Congress party’s “sudden devotion” to Mahatma Gandhi’s name and asked why earlier plans were never named after Mahatma Gandhi by the Congress.

He said that the VB-G RAM G Act adopts a 60:40 model of fund sharing between the Center and the States and this will impose greater responsibility, fiscal discipline and accountability on the States.

BJP national secretary Om Prakash Dhankar, state BJP general secretary N. Gautam Rao and State Kisan Morcha president Baswapuram Laxminarsaiah attended the workshop.
