I will always remember Dr. Priya Ranjan not only as the Chairman of JK Monitor, but as a mentor, guide and elder brother whose kindness shaped my life and work. Write a tribute at KATHUA: Deputy Commissioner Kathua Rajesh Sharma today chaired a meeting to review the progress and implementation of the interventions under the Holistic Agriculture Development Programme (HADP) and the Jammu and Kashmir Competitiveness Improvement Project (JKCIP) in the district.
The Deputy Commissioner undertook a detailed review of the progress of ongoing works, implementation of various activities and the status of units established. He assessed the progress achieved under different components of the programmes and took stock of issues affecting their implementation.
Emphasising the importance of effective execution of these initiatives, the DC directed the concerned departments and field functionaries to maintain close coordination and ensure that all approved activities are implemented in a time-bound manner. He stressed the need for regular monitoring of progress, identification of gaps and prompt resolution of issues arising during implementation.
The DC stressed that the progress of units established under HADP and JKCIP should be closely monitored to ensure their effective functioning and achievement of intended objectives. He called upon the departments to expedite pending activities, adhere to prescribed timelines and ensure accountability at every level.
Underscoring the significance of HADP and JKCIP in transforming the agriculture and allied sectors, the Deputy Commissioner emphasised that coordinated efforts, regular field-level engagement and effective monitoring are essential to maximise the impact of these initiatives.
The DC specifically directed to convene monthly meetings with Krishi Udyamis to review their progress, understand the difficulties faced by them and facilitate timely redressal of their grievances. He called for a structured mechanism to document the issues raised during these meetings, fix responsibility for their resolution and monitor the action taken. He directed all concerned officers to work in a coordinated manner to ensure timely implementation of the programmes and facilitate farmers in accessing the benefits envisaged under the government initiatives.
The meeting was attended by Head Krishi Vigyan Kendra Kathua, Chief Planning Officer Kathua, Chief Agriculture Officer Kathua, Chief Horticulture Officer Kathua, AD Fisheries, District Sericulture Officer, AR Cooperative Department, besides other sectoral officers.
