Dear Prime Minister Modi( @PMOIndia ), We commend your government's numerous initiatives aimed at India’s development, such as Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan, Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana, Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana, and Beti Bachao Beti Padhao. These programs have positively impacted millions of lives. We believe that maximizing the impact of these schemes requires effective communication to the grassroots level. The predominantly Hindi or English names of these schemes can be a challenge in states where regional languages are widely spoken. We propose a collaborative effort between the Central and State governments to address this issue. By developing regional language equivalents for these scheme names, we can enhance public awareness and participation. This approach aligns with your manifesto's emphasis on improving public service delivery in multiple Indian languages. We urge you to consider initiating a dialogue between Central Government agencies and State governments to develop a unified approach towards naming schemes in a manner that resonates with the people at the grassroots level. Thank you for your time and consideration. @narendramodi @pib_comm @PIB_India @MVenkaiahNaidu @AndhraPradeshCM @TelanganaCMO @ncbn @revanth_anumula @PawanKalyan @KTRBRS @naralokesh @bandisanjay_bjp @ysjagan @mnadendla @MNageswarRaoIPS #india #pm #schemes #localnames #telugu
