APAS gets replicated in Tamil Nadu, camps extended in north Bengal
October 15, 2025
|The Statesman Kolkata
The Trinamul Congress recently posted on its official X handle: "Bengal Leads, India follows. Tamil Nadu has launched 'Namma Ooru, Namma Arasu', inspired by Bengal's Amader Para Amader Samadhan (APAS).
This may be something to cheer about for the Bengal government and the ruling TMC. While APAS initiative is being replicated in Tamil Nadu, Kanyashree scheme was replicated as Ladli Bahin in Madhya Pradesh.
While Kanyashree focuses on adolescent girls to encourage education and delay marriage, Ladli Bahin targets adult women to provide financial support. Both the schemes are Mamata Banerjee's flagship schemes.
The Bengal govt has completed 90 per cent of the planned camps with over 28,300 of 31,700-under the Amader Para Amader Samadhan scheme, CM Mamata Banerjee said on Sunday. Citing the extensive damage caused by recent natural disasters in north Bengal, CM Banerjee announced an extension of the programme beyond 6 Nov for the affected areas.
Mamata Banerjee said the camps have received 2.5 crore visitors and processed around 3.58 lakh claims, of which 2.84 lakh claims have already been addressed.
