Recalling the initiative of PM-JANMAN, President Murmu asserted that the policy represents more than a mere administrative intervention and reflects a profound sensitivity toward India’s most vulnerable citizens. “Among the many initiatives undertaken during this period, PM-JANMAN holds a special place in my heart. Having witnessed the challenges faced by Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups over generations, I was deeply touched by your compassion for the marginalised sections of our society and your commitment to the ideal of Antyodayaupliftment of the person at the very end of the line. It reflected not merely a policy intervention, but a profound sensitivity towards some of the most vulnerable citizens of Bharat," added President Murmu. President Murmu also highlighted the government’s focus on regions that had historically lagged behind in development, especially eastern and northeastern India. She said special attention given to these areas reflected a model of people-centric governance aimed at ensuring that no region, community or citizen is left behind in the country’s development journey. “In recent years, regions that had long remained outside the principal arc of India’s development story have received special attention and care under your leadership. This is especially true about the Eastern and North-Eastern part of India which had lagged behind in terms of development indicators. Such efforts reflect the spirit of people-centric and people-powered governance, which seeks to ensure that the fruits of development reach the last person and that no region, community or citizen is left behind," said President Murmu.
