“CM Shri @vijayrupanibjp chaired the first meeting of the ”Vatan Prem Yojana” governing body and expressed intention to undertake various public welfare works with Rs 1,000 crore jointly by the Non-Resident Gujarati donors and the state government on 60:40 ratio by next December 2022,” the chief minister’s office tweeted on Saturday.

The CM said priority should be given towards construction of classrooms in rural government schools under the scheme, an official said, adding that details of the requirement of classrooms in schools will be provided on the web portal of the scheme.

A presentation on the main aspects of the scheme was made at the meeting, including setting up a project management unit for effective implementation, arrangement of payment through separate bank account and portal so that donors can easily make contributions online, as well as a 24×7 call centre for redressal of queries and exchange of information, the CMO informed.

The governing board is chaired by the CM, with members being ministers, bureaucrats, chairperson of the Non-Resident Gujarati Foundation, and two distinguished persons involved in development work in rural areas being invitees.
