PM Modi to interact with beneficiaries of Swayampurna Goa programme

New Delhi, Oct 22 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi will interact with the beneficiaries and stakeholders of Aatmanirbhar Bharat Swayampurna Goa programme on Saturday virtually, the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) said in a statement on Friday.

The interaction will be followed by an address by the PM, it said.

The initiative of Swayampurna Goa, launched on October 1 last year was inspired by the clarion call given by the PM for ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’. Under this programme, a state government officer is appointed as ‘Swayampurna Mitra’. The Mitra visits a designated panchayat or municipality, interacts with people there, coordinates with multiple government departments and ensures that various government schemes and benefits are available to the eligible beneficiaries.

Goa Chief Minister Promod Sawant will also be present on the occasion, the statement said.
