These 25 works or projects are expected to meet the various needs of the villages.

Previously the Atma Nirbhar Bharat Campaign was also launched with a 1.75 Lakh Crore package under PM Garib Kalyan Yojana for the welfare of the migrant workers. The Central and State Government also ran special Shramik Express Trains for the migrant labour who wished to return homes.
