The Svamitva scheme will save villagers from borrowing money from third parties and now, on the basis of their property papers, they will get loans from banks to enhance their financial strength. Narendra Modi, Prime Minister
To this effect, he said drones have emerged as a vital cog. He called upon scientists, engineers, software developers and start-up entrepreneurs to come forward to make low-cost drones in India. The Union Government has started a PLI scheme to facilitate this.
“Drones have the capability to take India to new heights,” in the context of use of drones being used for various purposes, including implementation of the scheme.
“Svamitva”, a Central scheme, entails survey of village population and mapping with improvised technology aims to provide property rights to residents in rural areas. The surveys of villages and properties have been accomplished in 60 districts across the country.
The PM, who also interacted with the beneficiaries, said the Swamitva scheme, which is implemented by the Panchayat Raj Ministry, would usher in a new dawn of development in villages and empowerment of the residents. The property cards, which are official certification of ownership of property, can be used as a financial asset to procure bank loans and other financial benefits.
