Minister for General Administration and Cooperatives Govind Singh gave instructions to ensure availability of fertiliser, seeds and pesticides in adequate quantity for the farmers during a meeting of the District Planning Committee in Datia. He said that these have been stored in the state in sufficient quantity.
The Cooperative Minister Dr. Singh said that farmers should be encouraged to grow horticulture crops to increase their income. At the departmental level, at least two horticulture crops in each block should be grown to encourage the farmers. He told to organize regular meetings of committees constituted to resolve complaints related to electricity.
Minister Singh directed to complete the survey work of the crops affected by excessive rains soon. He mentioned that not a single farmer should be left out in the survey.
He stressed on construction of Gou-shalas at the earliest. Reviewing the status of forest rights pattas, Singh said that further action should be taken by ensuring the documents in the proposals of forest rights deeds, rejected due to lack of the requisite documents.
