Strengthen traditional art, Haryana CM Nayab Saini urges Prajapatis

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini today called upon the people belonging to the Prajapati community to enhance their skills and strengthen their traditional art by integrating it with modern technology.

The Chief Minister was addressing a state-level function organised in Kurukshetra for the distribution of entitlement certificates to families belonging to the Prajapati community.

While the CM handed over certificates to beneficiaries here, programmes were held simultaneously in all 22 districts of the state, benefiting around 1 lakh families with land entitlement certificates.

Under the scheme, entitlement certificates have been issued in about 1,700 villages, granting the Prajapati community collective rights for soil excavation.

The Chief Minister said, “These certificates not only grant the right to use the land but also provide legal authority to carry out their work without hindrance. This initiative will enable the Prajapati community to give a new direction to their art, help realise their dreams and allow them to manufacture products without having to travel far.”

He urged them to move forward by adopting new techniques, making use of government schemes and enhancing the quality and appeal of their products in line with market demand. Describing the Prajapati community as hardworking, honest and skilled, the Chief Minister said that the art of making earthen pots had been an integral part of our cultural heritage. On the occasion, Development and Panchayats Minister Krishan Lal Panwar, Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Minister Shyam Singh Rana and several other BJP leaders were present.
