During the last 10 years, the wind of development has flowed at every level in the country. Every category, every level in the country has seen a new face of development in some form or the other, which has changed the picture of India. In this sequence, in the last 10 years, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Modi government has changed the picture of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes. The central government has given due respect to Dalits, deprived, backward classes and tribals in the country. Under the leadership of Modi government, everyone has got new opportunities. In the last 10 years, the Modi government has written a new story of backward classes in India. The Modi government has also given justice and representation to SC ST and OBC classes along with pucca houses, free food grains, gas cylinders, water and health insurance cover.
Today, in India, the welfare of the underprivileged has been achieved due to these facilities. Today, the underprivileged class has itself become prosperous. The underprivileged society has got a permanent roof, under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Gramin, one crore 77 lakh houses have been given to the SC and ST community. New opportunities are being provided to the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe class. Under the Swanidhi scheme, 65 percent of the loans have been given to the street vendors of SC, ST and OBC. Under the Vishwakarma scheme, more than two lakh 50 thousand candidates are being trained.
New opportunities are also being given to the youth of the deprived society. Financial assistance of Rs 720 crore has been given in the bank accounts of the youth of the marginalized section. In the last 10 years, the number of Eklavya schools in the country has increased from 100 to more than 690. Now the development of Dalit majority villages in the country is also being done with great enthusiasm.
This work is being done under the PM Adarsh Gram Yojana. 27 thousand Dalit majority villages are being developed in the country. Apart from this, five places associated with Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar are also being developed as Panch Teerth. E-payment has been named Bhim App in honor of Baba Saheb. Along with this, Sant Ravidas temple is being constructed in Sagar district of Madhya Pradesh at a cost of more than Rs 100 crore, which is the largest temple in the country.

The deprived class is also moving forward and contributing to the development of the country.
