The next point I wish to make is relating to
social security. The Government is moving
from financial inclusion through Jan Dhan
Yojna to social security through Jan Suraksha.
Hon. Finance Minister has announced, at least,
half-a-dozen social security schemes to
achieve universal social security, especially
the poor and under-privileged. The
Government is planning to roll them out
through 12 crore Jan Dhan Accounts opened
and also utilize the 1.5 crore post offices that
we have in the country. Earlier also, we had
social security schemes, but they could not
penetrate due to the faulty implementation by
UPA. Now, with this JAM Number Trinity, this
Government proposed to transfer benefits in a
leak-proof, well-targeted and cashless manner.
That is precisely the reason why I said in the
beginning that this Budget has tilted towards
social security a bit and is welcome. Sir, all in
the country are now talking of Team India—
The Prime Minister, the Finance Minister, my
Chief Minister from Andhra Pradesh, and other
Ministers. The country has expectations from
this Team India, as they are all intellectual and
intelligent people. Now, the future of Andhra
Pradesh and the country rests in the people.
Andhra Pradesh has elected an experienced
and visionary leader, because they thought
that it is only he who can take the State
forward. Our Chief Minister has started this
business right from day one. He met important
business tycoons.
