NEW DELHI, May 23 : Union Minister Dr Jitendra Singh said here today that quite in contrast to the appeasement driven practice followed during the Congress or UPA rule, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had introduced a culture of equitable delivery wherein minorities were equally benefited.

Modi had successfully raised the standards of public delivery above vote consideration, based on the principle of justice for all, he said.
In an exclusive interview to a monthly magazine, Dr Jitendra Singh said, Modi will always be credited for having introduced a new work culture in India wherein each of the pro-poor and public welfare schemes were designed in such a manner so as to reach the most needy or the last man in the last queue, regardless of cast, creed, religion or vote consideration.
Dr Jitendra Singh said, purely objective parameters were followed to meet the requirement, wherever the requirement was not met in the past and to deliver justice wherever justice had been denied in the past. This, he said, was quite a departure from the past practice followed by Congress and its allied governments wherein vote bank politics pre-determined the selective rolling out of State benefits.
Citing an example, the Union Minister said, the citizen-centric schemes like PM Awas Yojna, Ujjawala Yojna, Sochalaya, etc., reached every such household where these amenities were found lacking and the authorities never asked as to which religion or caste the family belongs to, or which political party they had voted for in the last election. This new work culture, he said, will become a new norm in Indian politics and the masses will expect every political party to follow the same.
Dr Jitendra Singh said that due to game changer schemes like Gareeb Kalyan Anna Yojana, Jan Dhan, Ujjawala, Sauchalaya, PM Aawas, Har Ghar Jal, Har Ghar Bijli and Ayushman, the people of the country have reposed faith in Modi Government time and again both at the Centre and in most of the States. He said, people are getting the benefits of welfare schemes without any discrimination, unlike in the past, when appeasement policy was rampant.
The Minister emphasised that these welfare measures brought over 25 crore people out of the clutches of abject poverty and gave them a life of dignity.
Dr Jitendra Singh also added that these schemes along with other measures like StartUp scheme and rural job scheme have transformed the lives of the poorest of the poor and have helped raise their standard of living to a level of dignity. The Minister also emphasised that full benefits are directly reaching to the needy without any leakages through a transparent and efficient delivery mechanism.
