The Prime Minister is set to inaugurate a unique week-long initiative, ‘Sankalp Saptaah,’
at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi.
- Sankalp Saptah is linked to the effective implementation of the Aspirational Blocks
Programme (ABP). - To implement the ABP and prepare an effective block development strategy, “chintan
shivirs (brainstorming sessions)” were organized at village and block levels across the
country. - The Sankalp Saptah Is the culmination of these chintan shivirs.
- Sankalp Saptah will be observed in all 500 aspirational blocks.
- Each day in Sankalp Saptah will be dedicated to a specific development theme on which
all aspirational blocks will work. - The themes for the first six days are “Sampoorna Swasthya”, “Suposhit Parivar”,
“Swachhta”, “Krishi”, “Shiksha”, and “Samridhi Diwas”. - The last day of the week will be a celebration of the work conducted during the entire
week, as “Sankalp Saptah – Samavesh Samaroh”. - The inaugural programme will witness the participation of about 3,000 panchayat and
block-level people’s representatives and functionaries from across the country at the
Bharat Mandapam
