People across the country are getting benefits from this package and schemes such as Ujjwala Yojana, Pradhanmantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, Pradhanmantri Jan Dhan Yojana, have come in handy for poor to tide over the situation.

Sharad Ladekar, another resident has also got five kilograms of rice during lockdown to support his daily needs.

Around 8.89 crore farmer families across the country have benefited under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Scheme till April 20, 2020. Also, Rs. 17,793 crore has been deposited into the accounts of farmers through Direct Benefit Transfer till April 20, 2020. During the same month, under Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Scheme, 19.63 lakh metric tonne ration has been distributed to 39.27 crore beneficiaries covered under 1.19 crore ration cards.
