The people must utilise various welfare schemes introduced by the government for the economic development of all sections of people along with visiting government hospitals for normal deliveries to get the benefits provided by the government, he advised.

People must take initiation for planting the saplings. By increasing the green cover, plenty of rainfall can be witnessed in future along with pure air and atmosphere.
