Udupi, Jun 12: BJP leader and Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel has claimed that the welfare programmes launched by the prime minister Narendra Modi-led NDA government at the centre has reached all communities and development has reached all the villages in the country.

Speaking to media persons here yesterday, Mr Kateel said that the country had seen rapid progress in the last four years of Modi government. “Even U.S. President Donald Trump has acknowledged that India was an economic power to reckon with. The country had seen about 7 % growth in GDP. Mr. Modi had given corruption-free governance during this period. The military prowess of the country could be gauged by the fact that it had conducted cross-border military strikes. Yet, at the same time, the country’s relations with other nations had improved,” he said.

The BJP was now in power in over 20 States in the country. It had provided electricity supply to 18,000 villages under the Deen Dayal Electrification Scheme. To give a push to cleanliness and sanitation in the country, 7.5 crore toilets have been constructed under the Swachh Bharat scheme, he said.

Nearly 3.8 crore people have been provided with LPG cylinders under Ujwala scheme. The government has given loans to 10 crore youth under the Mudra scheme so that they could become self-employed. The government was also providing training in skill development to the youth so that their chances of getting employed increased, he said.

Nearly 31.6 crore people in the country had been brought under banking network through the Jan Dhan Yojana. Optical Fibre Cables had been drawn to all villages so that there was better connectivity in the country, he said.

About 2.5 crore poor people have been provided with housing in the country in the last four years under the Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana. To provide healthcare facilities to the poor people, the government had started the Ayushman Bharat scheme, he said.

Feb 25: Two Customs Preventive officers allegedly involved in gold smuggling cases in Kerala were removed from service, a top official said in Kochi on Monday.

Sumit Kumar, Commissioner of Customs (Preventive), Kochi, said that he took action against Radhakrishnan B, Superintendent of Customs, and Rahul, Inspector of Customs, who were allegedly involved in gold smuggling cases in the state.

Rahul was involved in attempted smuggling of gold weighing 11,035.54 grams valued at over Rs 4 crore through international airport on August 19, 2019, the Customs Commissioner added.

Radhakrishnan is currently lodged in Central prison, Thiruvananthapuram after the Central Economic Intelligence Bureau under the Union Finance Ministry issued detention order under COFEPOSA (Conservation of Foreign Exchange and Prevention of Smuggling Activities Act, 1974).

Rahul, against whom detention order under COFEPOSA was issued, is absconding.

Kumar said that both the cases were booked and investigated by the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence and while show cause notice under Customs Act 1962 has been issued against Radhakrishnan, investigation is under progress in the other case.
