IYC to pay one-day wages to poor on Rajiv death anniversary
The Indian Youth Congress (IYC) will distribute one-day wages to the underprivileged on the death anniversary of Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi on Thursday.
“The lockdown has badly affected the migrant and the poor. To extend a helping hand and get them justice they deserve, the Congress will provide financial assistance to the underprivileged people and their families,” said IYC president B.V. Srinivas.
As per the NYAY, the IYC is demanding Rs 6,000 assistance per person for six months, along with doubling of MANREGA benefits to the worst-hit.
The IYC said from the day one of the lockdown, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had been asking the government to help all those people, who were in the urgent need of financial support.
“This day has been chosen to commemorate Rajiv Gandhi”s ideology of equality and remember the contributions and sacrifices he made for this great nation of ours,” said Amrish Ranjan Pandey, IYC media in-charge.
This concept was the part of the NYAY, advocated by Rahul Gandhi as an effective plan to help the underprivileged.
The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
