Modi Government's Schemes

Modi Government's Schemes

Narendra Modi-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) launched, or rather re-launched, flagship schemes in five key areas—financial inclusion (Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana or PMJDY), sanitation (Swachh Bharat Abhiyan), cooking fuel (Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana), skills (Pradhan Mantri Kasushal Vikas Yojana or PMKVY), and rural electrification (Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana or DDUGJY)—even as it boosted spending on the rural roads programme (Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana).


If one goes by the headline numbers, the record looks very impressive on most counts. A closer look at the numbers suggests that the picture may be less rosy. Nonetheless, the government’s overall record on flagship schemes, despite the caveats, appears more impressive than its macro-economic record.
