Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Cooperative Minister Shilpi Neha Tirkey, on Wednesday, has instructed to emphasize on quality in the construction work of the buildings related to the department. She has asked to complete the work of 19 cold storages under construction in the state within the time limit.
During the meeting with the officials of the Building Construction Department at Nepal House, it was emphasized that along with the construction work of the new building, maintenance of the already built building is also necessary. These instructions are especially important for the Lamp _ PACS associated with the Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Cooperative Department.
Tirkey said that the construction work of buildings related to the storage of agricultural products should be done within the stipulated time limit and the construction of new buildings in place of dilapidated Lamp _ PACS in the state is the need of the hour.
The Minister also said that 19 cold storages under construction in the state as well as smaller cold storages were also reviewed. "Due to lack of sufficient number of cold storages in the state, farmers are facing problems in storing agricultural produce, fruits and vegetables. While constructing such cold storages, the most emphasis has to be given on quality," she added.
In the meeting, Tirkey said that this time due to favorable weather, paddy has been produced well. "The yield of coarse grains and pulses is also better than before. There should be better storage arrangements in the state for timely distribution of seeds to farmers. For this, the department needs a building and the building construction department will have to provide the building within the time limit," she added.
