A significant initiative is set to launch with 200 new projects aimed at uplifting minority communities and combating poverty. Each project will receive $15,000, providing crucial support for community development.

Charan Jeath Singh, the Minister for Multi-Ethnic Affairs, made this announcement during his visit to Labasa, highlighting that the initiation of these projects comes after the allocation of a budget, which was absent in the previous fiscal year. Singh expressed the ministry’s commitment to advancing work within multi-ethnic affairs, emphasizing the importance of these projects for the targeted communities.

Commencing next month, the projects will focus on various aspects, including poverty alleviation and improving road infrastructure for minority groups. The minister assured that the ministry aims to prioritize the interests of multi-ethnic groups and ensure the success of each project for the benefit of the recipients.

While specifics on project management are still pending, Singh promised that the public would be informed as details unfold. This initiative represents a positive step toward addressing the needs of vulnerable communities, fostering a more inclusive society.

In summary, the program not only seeks to alleviate poverty but also aims to enhance community infrastructure, signifying a broader commitment to equitable development across diverse ethnic groups.
