Chandigarh, November 24 - Haryana Chief Minister Sh Manohar Lal said that on November 29, the President, Smt.

The Chief Minister said that the work of making the CHIRAYU Haryana Yojana cards should be done at a fast pace so that people can avail the scheme benefits as soon as possible. On December 5, the distribution of 10 lakh golden cards to be given under this scheme should be ensured at the village and ward level, directed Sh. Manohar Lal.
28 lakh families to get scheme benefits
The Chief Minister said that under CHIRAYU Yojana, about 28 lakh Antyodaya families of the state should be ensured the health benefits at the earliest. No laxity will be tolerated in this work. Under this scheme health benefits of Rs 5 lakh would be provided to each family. The government is committed to providing health benefits to these beneficiaries, he said.
Set up Call centres at the village level
The Chief Minister said that for the convenience of the general public, call centres should be set up at the village level so that any queries related to this scheme can be resolved easily.
Registration for CHIRAYU Yojana and health cards are being made free of cost. No fee is being charged by the government for this, but complaints are being received regarding the charging of some fee for making these cards, therefore the officers concerned should take immediate cognizance of such complaints and take strict action against people doing so, said Sh. Manohar Lal.
