Ranchi, Aug 30 (PTI) Aimed at taking welfare schemes to the doorstep of beneficiaries, the JMM-led government will launch the fourth leg of its outreach programme on Friday, an official said.

In 2022, 5,696 camps were held and around 55.44 lakh applications were generated. In the third phase in 2023, a total of 5,496 camps were organised and around 58.26 lakh applications were received.
Out of the total applications received in three phases, around 1.49 crore applications were disposed of, an official said.
The programme aims to ensure that no eligible person is left without benefits. It includes applications for schemes such as Jharkhand Mukhyamantri Maiya Samman Yojana, Abua Swasth Suraksha Yojana, Abua Awas Yojana, the universal pension scheme, Chief Minister's Livestock Development Scheme, and Kisan Credit Card (KCC), among others.
