Balarampur, 17 December, 2009.The PM's New 15-Point Programme for the Welfare of Minorities has taken a holistic view about the educational, social and economic backwardness of the people belonging to the minority communities. But these people have to be made properly aware about this programme so that they can be benefited. Speaking at a function at the minority dominated village Kuchlachati under Kharagpur Block-I all the speakers made such unanimous observation. The function was organised as part of the Bharat Nirman Public Information Campaign at Balarampur, under Kharagpur-II Block of Paschim Medinipur. Shri Sandip Kumar Das District Coordinator Childline, Vidyasagar School of Social Work said that the touts and unscrupulous elements are taking advantage of the educational, social and economic backwardness of the minority people and have started indulging in human trafficking and some cases of trafficking children from the minority dominated villages in the district have also been reported. In order to stop this trend the minority people must be helped in every way and enlightened and encouraged to know and reap benefit from the PM's 15-Point Programme. Shri Sibes Kuila, Principal, Anganwadi Training Centre, Balrampur said that the panchayat functionaries, local opinion leaders and others concerned must take a proactive role to make the minority people aware of the 15-Point Programme and help them in getting the benefits.
Shri Santanu Palodhi, Addl. DG, PIB, Kolkata presided over the meeting and called for a concerted effort to create awareness about the 15-Point Programme.
