Ashok Gehlot launches ‘Jan Samman’ video contest on flagship welfare schemes

In yet another attempt to bring his government’s flagship welfare schemes to the centre stage ahead of the Assembly election, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on July 7 launched a video contest with daily cash prizes worth ₹2.75 lakh for the participants. Named ‘Jan Samman’, the contest entails shooting and uploading of short videos on the schemes.

The beneficiaries of 10 welfare schemes are being registered at the inflation relief camps in the villages, hamlets and towns across the State since April 24. The people getting themselves registered receive the colourful ‘Labharthi Guarantee Cards’ promising the benefits of schemes.
