Haryana is primarily an agrarian State By : Editor Published On : 11 Jun, 2019 04:00 PM IST INVC NEWS Chandigarh, Haryana Government has decided to introduce the Ambucycles (two-wheeler) service in the state with the assistance of Israel for providing emergency response service to the people in minimum possible time. This service will initially be started in two cities namely Gurugram and Faridabad. Haryana Chief Minister, Mr Manohar Lal gave this direction when a three-member delegation led by Ambassador of Israel to India Dr Ron Malka called on him here today. The Ambucycles are the motorcycles which make sure that people get to emergencies within the first few crucial minutes of any need or mishap. The Chief Minister said that during his visit to Israel in May last year, he had also interacted with officials who started this Ambucycle service as a community-based service of providing emergency response service on two-wheeler. He said that there is a huge requirement of this service in Gurugram and Faridabad keeping in view the high density of population in these cities. It was also agreed that though the State has already constituted working groups for the early execution of projects being implemented with the assistance of Israel in the field of agriculture, horticulture and water conservation, such groups should also be constituted in the areas of cyber security, home land security, aviation and industries. Mr Manohar Lal also directed to appoint a senior IAS officer of the State Government as a Nodal Officer to coordinate and maintain liaison with all countries for the implementation of various prestigious projects.

Mr. Takeshi Yagi, Ambassador of Japan to India, and Mr. Rajesh Khullar, Joint Secretary, Department of Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance, Government of India. 2. This Japanese ODA loan was initially pledged on the occasion of the Summit Meeting between Prime Minister of Japan, H.E. Shinzo Abe and Prime Minister of India, H.E. Narendra Modi on 1st September, 2014. The loan for this project is one of the concrete outcomes which will materialize the “intention to realize 3.5 trillion Yen of public and private investment and financing from Japan, including Official Development Assistance (ODA), to India in five years” expressed by Prime Minister Abe at the Summit Meeting. 3. The Government of India has been working on the development of Infrastructure by utilizing private funding under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP).
