With the use of technology, radical changes have been brought to ensure the reach of benefits of every welfare scheme to the last mile citizen or 'Antyodaya'."The life of the common man is getting better and easier with many programmes like Parivar Pehchan Patra, and CHIRAYU Haryana. Also, in the last eight years, more than one lakh government jobs have been given on merit," said Khattar.He said the panchayat representatives should also perform their duties while upholding the spirit of Haryana Ek-Haryanvi Ek and Sabka Saath-Sabka Vikas-Sabka Vishwas and Prayas.The Chief Minister said Rs 300 crore was released for unanimously elected representatives. He said this time out of 70,000 representatives 40,000 were elected unanimously. This system has promoted social harmony and mutual brotherhood.The government has done many things in the direction of making panchayats autonomous. "We have also started the system of literate panchayats and this time 50 per cent representation has been given to women in panchayat elections.
