BANDIPORA: Deputy Commissioner (DC) Bandipora, Indu Kanwal Chib, today chaired a comprehensive review meeting to assess the functioning and performance of Kisan Khidmat Ghars (KKGs) across the district. During the meeting, the Chief Agriculture Officer (CAO) Bandipora, Javaid Ahmad Samoon presented a detailed report covering the overall status and performance of KKGs.
The CAO briefed the chair on multiple performance indicators, including department-wise farmer and farm registrations on the KKG App, KKG-wise performance reports, non-operational Krishi Udyamis, online application status, visitor and beneficiary attendance, and revenue generated through each KKG.
The Deputy Commissioner directed the CAO to compile a sector-wise report reflecting the total number of farmers and farms, along with registration progress on the KKG App. She further urged that necessary directions be issued to all KKGs to enhance their performance and ensure effective implementation of the initiative in letter and spirit.
While addressing the participants, the DC emphasized that every KKG has been provided with complete setup, and there should be no disruption in work. She informed that nearly 80% of the work has already been completed, and the remaining tasks would be finalized within the stipulated timeframe.
Highlighting the need for efficiency and independence in functioning, the DC urged Krishi Udyamis that âif you are working under pressure, the results will not be as expected , you are supposed to work independently.â She advised all district officers to coordinate closely with KKGs for the saturation of government schemes, leveraging their reach to ensure that benefits reach the last mile.
On the occasion, the Deputy Commissioner said that if Krishi Udyamis are not earning at par with skilled manpower, it indicates a need to reassess operations and improve performance. She urged Krishi Udyamis to strengthen their services and outreach, reiterating that âfarmers will long cherish the benefits for which efforts are being made today.â
She stressed that counselling and training sessions be organized for Krishi Udyamis, with SDOs conducting regular interactive sessions. The DC further called for enhanced collaboration with banks and Banking Correspondents to streamline farmer-centric services and financial inclusion.
Among others, the meeting was attended by Chief Horticulture Officer Bandipora, District Sheep Husbandry Officer Bandipora, District Agriculture Officer Bandipora, SDOs, District Manager CSC Bandipora, representatives from Animal Husbandry Department, LDM and other concerned departments.
