Shillong, June 17: BJP Garo Hills has launched arigri.com in the presence of the State BJP President Rikman G Momin.
In a statement, BJP leader Bernard Marak said this website/app will monitor the implementation of the Central schemes in the state through grassroot involvement of the beneficiaries and concerned citizens. Many schemes have to be properly monitored and reported to the concerned departments in order to get the utilisation certificates. But most of the schemes have turned into scams in many villages which cannot be comprised by BJP. Arigri which means “No boundaries” and “unlimited” in Garo aims to work to uplift the poor irrespective of party affiliation. Arigri will have a full time office and will serve as the grievance cell for those beneficiaries who have been deprived,the BJP said. There will be two level of teams working in arigri. One is Central Scheme Monitoring Committee (CSMC) and other is Grassroot Review Organisation (GRO) which in Garo means debts. Government is indebted to the voters in providing the best facilities which politicians have promised during elections but in reality the debts of the government towards the voters are never met. “Therefore, this app will provide a platform to pursue the promises made by their leaders by highlighting the needs and expectations of the voters. GRO will also be a platform for the youths to register their names for various flagship programmes which have been sponsored by the Centre”, Bernard said.
“Arigri team will assist the youths to pursue their aspirations by providing support and help the youths in applying and availing the schemes from various departments. CSMC on the other hand will monitor the implementation of all the central schemes like PMAY, JJM, PM KISAN, PMGKAY, MHIS, PMGSY, NREGA, IHHL etc including Primary Schools and Health Centres which need immediate revamping in the state. Arigri is presently launched in Garo but will soon have English version and probably in Khasi and Jaintia too”, Bernard said.
