Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday shifted his office to the newly constructed Seva Teerth Complex, marking a significant transition from the colonial-era South Block building near Rashtrapati Bhavan on Raisina Hill. The move coincided with February 13, the day New Delhi marked 95 years since its formal inauguration as India\u2019s modern capital in 1931.<\/p>\n
The Prime Minister arrived at the new complex in a motorcade along with Union ministers Manohar Lal and Jitendra Singh and senior officials of the Prime Minister\u2019s Office. He formally inaugurated the complex, which will now house the Prime Minister\u2019s Office (PMO), the National Security Council Secretariat, and the Cabinet Secretariat, creating a centralized administrative hub.<\/p>\n
After entering the office, Modi garlanded a statue of Lord Ganesha and immediately began official work by signing key files related to welfare and development measures aimed at women, farmers, youth, and vulnerable sections of society.<\/p>\n
Among the major decisions was the approval of the PM RAHAT Scheme, which will provide accident victims with cashless medical treatment of up to \u20b91.5 lakh, ensuring timely emergency care and reducing financial burdens on families.<\/p>\n
The Prime Minister also set an ambitious target to double the number of \u2018lakhpati didis\u2019\u2014women earning at least \u20b91 lakh annually through self-help groups\u2014from three crore to six crore by March 2029. Officials noted that the government had already achieved the earlier milestone of three crore beneficiaries ahead of schedule.<\/p>\n
In a significant push for the agriculture sector, the Agriculture Infrastructure Fund was doubled to \u20b92 lakh crore to strengthen storage, logistics, and the overall agricultural value chain.<\/p>\n
To boost innovation and entrepreneurship, Modi approved the Startup India Fund of Funds 2.0 with a corpus of \u20b910,000 crore. The fund aims to support deep-tech ventures, early-stage startups, advanced manufacturing, and breakthrough technologies.<\/p>\n
Officials said the relocation to the new office and the immediate rollout of policy measures reflect the government\u2019s focus on modern governance, efficiency, and inclusive growth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
