Deputy Chief Minister Dushyant Chautala today announced that the post of numberdars would not be abolished and they would be given an honorarium on a fixed date of every month.

“All numberdars have been linked to the Ayushman Bharat Scheme by the state government. Soon, smart phones will also be made available for accelerating work and connecting them digitally to the state government welfare schemes,” Chautala added.

Chautala invited numberdars to give feedback and suggestions so that they could be included during social audits at the village, town, block, tehsil and district levels.

Numberdars would also be included in the committee constituted to monitor development works being carried out by panchayati raj institutions.

“If there is more participation, the honorarium of numberdars can be increased. The state government’s vision is to make a provision for a fixed salary budget at each village, block, tehsil and district level so that institutional development can be ensured,” said Chautala. — TNS
