Silchar:  Minister Ajanta Neog inaugurated the District Social Welfare Office building at Meherpur and the new Treasury Office building at Sadarghat at Silchar on Wednesday. MP Parimal Suklabaidya, Silchar MLA Dipayan Chakraborty, and District Commissioner Mridul Yadav attended the two functions.

Minister Neog underscored the government’s unwavering commitment to uplifting women, children, and the underprivileged. She stated, “The new infrastructure symbolizes our resolve to bring services closer to the people. The District Social Welfare office will serve as the nucleus of our outreach programmes, ensuring every woman, child, and vulnerable group in Cachar has access to vital resources.”

Highlighting the accomplishments under the Women and Child Development (WCD) Department, she noted that Cachar district now had 16 project blocks overseeing 3,407 Anganwadi centres after amalgamating 534 centres. These centres play a pivotal role in implementing schemes like the Supplementary Nutrition Program, POSHAN Abhiyaan, District Hub for Empowerment of Women, Sakhi One Stop Centre, Beti Bachao Beti Padhao, and Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyan.

“With over 181,132 beneficiaries, including 7,054 pregnant women and 4,784 lactating mothers, we are building a healthier and more empowered society,” she added. 

 MP Suklabaidya said, “The new office building will enhance administrative efficiency, ensuring seamless delivery of welfare schemes to those in need. Under the dynamic leadership of Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and Minister Ajanta Neog, Assam is witnessing unprecedented development in women and child welfare.”

MLA Dipayan Chakraborty emphasized the transformative role of grassroots-level implementation. He also highlighted the new Treasury Office’s role in bolstering financial governance and transparency in Silchar.

 Earlier, District Commissioner Mridul Yadav, in his inaugural address, commended the integration of modern infrastructure with government schemes. “The inauguration of these two facilities marks a crucial step toward achieving administrative excellence and ensuring last-mile delivery of welfare benefits,” he said, urging all stakeholders to maximize the potential of these initiatives for community welfare.
