[edit]

The objective of the Narva, Garva, Ghurva, Bari (NGGB) scheme is to revive the agricultural economy by striking a balance between modernity and traditions. The scheme was launched to ensure water conservation, livestock protection and development, use of organic compost through household waste and cultivation of fruits and vegetables in backyards for self consumption and earning additional income.[citation needed]

In the 2020 state budget presented by the Chhattisgarh government, a provision of Rs 5700 crore was made for the welfare of farmers through which Rajiv Gandhi Kisan Nyay Yojana was launched on 21 May, the martyrdom day of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi.[27]

In Chhattisgarh, the total cultivable land area is 46.77 lakh hectare.[28] 70% population of the state is engaged in agriculture and around 37.46 Lakh are farm families.[29] The objective of Rajiv Gandhi Kisan Nyay Yojana is to encourage crop production and increase agricultural acreage. An amount of Rs 5750 crores is transferred to the accounts of farmers in four instalments under the scheme in a year. Chhattisgarh is the only state that has been procuring paddy from farmers at Rs 2,500 per quintal, which is higher than what the Centre has set. More than 23.99 lakh farmers of the state are benefiting from this scheme.[30] Under the scheme, a provision was made to give input subsidy to farmers producing paddy, sugarcane, maize, soyabean, pulses and oilseeds in the Kharif season 2021-22. Later, the provision of this scheme was modified to include Kodo, Kutki and Ragi, and an input subsidy of Rs.9,000 per acre is also being provided to millet farmers.[31] The government of Chhattisgarh has also decided to include the landless agricultural labourers of the state in the second phase of the Rajiv Gandhi Kisan Nyay Yojana.

On 17 October 2022, farmers received a total of Rs.1,745 crores to prepare for the upcoming Rabi season under this scheme. Amount as input subsidy transferred directly into the bank accounts of 23.99 lakh farmers in the state.[32] The state government has given farmers Rs.16,416.10 crores since its commencement.[33] Farmers who plant trees in the fields will also be given an input subsidy of Rs.10 thousand per year. Chief Minister said Chhattisgarh is the first state in the country, which has ensured social and economic rights for all through its 'Nyay' schemes, namely Rajiv Gandhi Kisan Nyay Yojana (RGKNY), Godhan Nyay Yojana and Rajiv Gandhi Grameen Bhumiheen Krishi Mazdoor Nyay Yojana (RGGBKMNY).[34]

Godhan Nyay Yojana

On 21 July 2020, the Baghel led Chhattisgarh government launched the Godhan Nyay Yojana to promote organic farming, create new employment opportunities at the rural and urban levels, promote cow rearing and cow protection, as well as to benefit cattle farmers financially. As per the scheme, the government will procure cow dung at ₹2 per kilogram from farmers and cattle rearers. After the procurement, the cow dung will be converted to vermicompost and other products by members of the Women Self-Help Group, which will be sold to farmers as organic manure for ₹8 per kilogram, thus discouraging use of chemical fertilisers.[35]

As per an October 2022 report, ₹5.59 crores have been paid to the livestock owners under Godhan Nyay Yojana.[36] Under the scheme, 1,62,497 cattle rearers of the state are benefiting, which includes 70,299 landless villagers and 44.55 per cent of the beneficiaries of the Godhan Nyay Yojana are women.[37] 3,12,647 registered cow dung traders were registered in 2021–22, up from 2,45,831 in 2020–21.[38]

On the occasion of Hareli, a traditional festival of Chhattisgarh, Chief Minister started the purchase of gaumutra (cow urine) under the scheme. The government has fixed a minimum rate of Rs 4 per litre for the purchase of cow urine. According to a Chhattisgarh government official, the procured cow urine will be used to make pest control products and natural liquid fertiliser,[39] A total of 24,547 litres of pest controller Brahmastra and 16,722 litres of Jeevamrit have been prepared from 70,889 litres of cow urine purchased in Gauthans. Beneficiaries earned Rs.14.75 lakh from the sale of 34,085 litres of Brahmastra and Jeevamrit.[38]

Resulting Godhan scheme opens new job avenues in Maoist-hit areas as well.[40] Also around 300 gauthan cum industrial parks will be set up in Chhattisgarh under the Mahatma Gandhi Rural Industrial Parks (MGRIP) scheme.[41] Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also praised the Godhan Nyaya Yojana in the seventh meeting of the Governing Council of NITI Aayog.[42] To strengthen the economic condition of the villages, the Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh governments also adopted the Chhattisgarh model. Madhya Pradesh Government will run Gobar-Dhan project for the purchase of cow dung.[43][44][45]

The state of Chhattisgarh has 44% forest cover, and as a result, a significantly large population lives in forests and remote areas. Due to neglect and difficult terrain, the population living in such areas doesn't have access to quality health care. On 2 October 2019, Baghel launched the Mukhyamantri Haat Bazaar Clinic Yojana, an innovative health care scheme is bringing health cared facilities to the doorsteps of these people. Under this scheme, mobile healthcare vans are deputed at weekly haat bazaars (local markets) which are frequented by forest dwellers selling minor forest produce. Staffed by specialist doctors and other qualified staff with necessary equipment, these mobile clinics provide healthcare checkups and medicine to people.[55]

In the past four years, 1.28 lakh Haat-bazaar clinics have provided healthcare services to more than 62,47,000 individuals.[56] The 429 medical mobile vans used to operate the 1798 haat-bazaar clinic programme.

In the first phase of the campaign, 14 lakh people were tested in Bastar, out of which 64,646 (4.60 per cent) were found malaria infected. The second phase of the campaign started on 6 June and ended 31 July in which more than 23 lakh people have been examined. The process of medication of the victims has started.[60] In March 2021, for the first time in the history of Chhattisgarh, the annual malaria parasite rate recorded lowest - API rate reached 1.17, the lowest since the formation of the state.[61]

Along with this, Bhupesh Baghel ensured the availability of hospital beds, medicine supply, PSA plant and oxygen to the hospitals with the help of state administration.[64]

To assist a collaborative effort of UNICEF and the state government, almost 3000 volunteers have gathered in the second wave. The 'Roko Au Toko Abhiyan' or 'Stop and Advice' campaign was started to raise awareness and encourage community involvement in the state's five most severely afflicted cities. These cities included Rajnandgaon, Raipur, Durg, Bilaspur, and Baloda Bazaar.[65]
