Kupwara, Sep 14: Union Minister of State for Minority Affairs, John Barla Tuesday said that time has come when benefits of development percolate down to the people in far off and border areas like Kupwara.

The Minister said that the Government of India always encourages social service and there are a number of schemes like DARPAN for the financial support of NGOs.
The Minister visited the paddy fields of Kalaroos and inquired from locals about the availability of job cards and the benefits of farmer welfare schemes. The Minister said that the Government of India has a number of welfare schemes for every section of the society and insisted people to get benefits from these schemes properly.
Barla also visited public park Zangali Kupwara where he interacted with the senior civil and police officers of the administration. Deputy Commissioner Kupwara Imam Din, SSP Kupwara Dr. G.V Sandeep were also present at the occasion.
The Minister, in the afternoon inspected stalls of ICDS, Rurban Mission, Social Welfare, Handicrafts and inspected the quality of different items of skill development including Kani Shawls, Crewl and knitting items at Government Degree College Kupwara. The Minister also participated in the Poshan Abhiyaan activities, the PM’S overarching scheme for Holistic Nourishment at the auditorium of the college, organized by ICDS department.
