Speaking to ANI, Mamgain said, "Recently, a camp has started in Nelangur, and this is a big achievement for us. As soon as the camp opens, we include all the villages or Gram Panchayats within its 10 km radius in the Niyad Nellanar scheme. So Nelangur has also been included in the Niyad Nellanar scheme, and our village survey is almost complete. We are constantly organising camps so that we can provide the benefits of Ayushman Card, Aadhar Card, Voter ID, Birth Certificate and all other government schemes to the people. Soon, a school will be built there, its approval is also being given..."
