Prime Minister has launched the government’s Aspirational Block Programme (ABP), which is aimed at improving performance of blocks lagging on various development parameters. This will enable holistic development in those areas that require added assistance. The focus area will also be more specific thus ensuring greater attention to detail. The programme will cover 500 districts across 31 states and Union Territories initially. Over half of these blocks are in 6 states—Uttar Pradesh (68 blocks), Bihar (61), Madhya Pradesh (42), Jharkhand (34), Odisha (29) and West Bengal (29). The Aspirational Blocks Programme is on the lines of the Aspirational District Programme that was launched in 2018 and covers 112 districts across the country. Learn Along: Aspirational District Programme-Launched by the Hon’ble PM in January 2018, the Aspirational Districts Programme (ADP) aims to quickly and effectively transform 112 most under-developed districts across the country.
