6) PAHAL scheme for DBTs for LPG was effectively implemented. This meant subsidy arrived in bank accounts directly, with no middlemen involved.

8) National Scholarships Portal set up as 1-stop solution for an end to end scholarship process. Scholarship grants were transferred to students via DBT.
9) 100 accessible websites of State Govts/UTs under Accessible India Campaign were launched easing their access to Divyangs.

Long hectic queues at toll plazas now things of the past with introduction of Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) ensures seamless movement of traffic & collection of fee. With a total number of 440 Toll Plazas, more than 34.3 lakh FASTags units have been issued.

There will be further easing of transportation of goods with plans to link e-way bills with FASTags.

EASE OF LIVING FOR POOREST SECTIONS OF SOCIETY-
As estimated, healthcare costs land more than 5 cr India into poverty, with 3.8 cr fell below poverty line due to spending on medicines alone. In this context, many steps taken show how @narendramodi govt brought ease of living:

Launch of Ayushman Bharat reducing expenditure of poor people, as healthcare is now affordable. More than 15 lakh beneficiaries have beenadmitted to hospitals and treated for free. Some treatments availed include Cardio-thoracic & vascular surgery, urology and neurosurgery.

5,000 PM Janaushadhi Kendras provide affordable medicines & are functional across India, with medicines at vastly lesser than market price.

In past 5 yrs, price of stents & knee implants reduced greatly owing to proactive measures by @narendramodi govt to cap their prices.

EASE OF LIVING FOR THOSE ARRIVING IN INDIA -
1) Online Event Clearance System has been introduced to grant security clearances to conferences, seminars, etc. organized in India, eased issue of Conference Visas for foreign nationals & delegates intending to attend such events.

2) ‘e-Visa’ facility covers approximately all countries of the world. Foreigner arriving doesnt have to interact with any Indian official till his arrival at the immigration counter, making it easier to reach India.

With implementation of this facility the number of foreigners who visited India on e-visa have gone up from 5.17 lakh in 2015 to 21 lakh in 2018.

All reforms illustrate @narendramodi govt’s effort towards making a New India as per 21st century expectations, aspirations and hopes to bring about a qualitative improvement in lives of people.
