While reviewing the progress on the achievements made in implementation of this programme, the Chief Secretary emphasised upon prompt decision on the fate of applications received on the portal. He asked for moving ahead from the tendering and other modalities and focus on the establishment of different production units by the eligible beneficiaries.
He directed the two agricultural varsities (SKUAST- Jammu, Kashmir) to make short informational videos demonstrating the essential ingredients and processes of each agricultural activity for the awareness of farmers. He asked each Deputy Commissioner to generate awareness about the benefits of this programme in their areas, especially on the occasions of Block Diwas held across panchayats and attended by farmers in large numbers.
While speaking about this massive programme, Dulloo advised for making the procedure for submission of applications simple, sticking purely to the guidelines delineated under the programme.
