In latest news from Uttarakhand, the Pushkar Singh Dhami government is all set to prepare and roll out family identity cards to the people on the lines of what several states, including Haryana and Karnataka, have done.
State government sources said that the family identity cards which will include the names of the family members will enable the beneficiaries of the welfare schemes being dished out by the government to avail the benefits more easily and swiftly with the detailed databases to be prepared. Such cards will spare people the need to apply separately for separate schemes by producing the required papers time and again.
Special funds have been provided for this project in the supplementary budget. The department of planning is proceeding fast with the project and has roped in a private company to complete things at the earliest.
