ITANAGAR, Sep 23: Union Minister of State for Rural Development & Steel, Faggan Singh Kulaste, today chaired a coordination-cum-interaction meeting with the officers of the Rural Development, Panchayati Raj, State Institute of Rural Development, and Arunachal Pradesh State Rural Livelihood Mission. 
Home Minister Bamang Felix, who is also the state’s Rural Development Minister, RD & PR Secretary Amarnath Talwade, RD Director K Jilen, and others attended the meeting which was held at the CS Conference Hall of the Civil Secretariat here. 
Implementation of schemes by the department of Rural Development such as MGNREGA, ArSRLM, PMAY-G, Integrated Watershed Management Programme (IWMP), and Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Rurban Mission (SPMRM), were reviewed during the meeting. 
Felix in his deliberation highlighted several challenges in implementation of rural development schemes, especially the PMAY-G, due to various factors. In this regard, Felix appealed to the Union MoS for allocation of funds and schemes based on the specific requirements of the state instead of uniformed ones for all states.
Kulaste on his part expressed satisfaction over the implementation of schemes for rural masses, and assured his support to the state’s Rural Development department in undertaking further activities to uplift the rural masses. 
Earlier today, Union MoS Kulaste also attended the State Executive Meeting of the state’s BJP ST Morcha at the D K Convention Centre, Itanagar.
