DC Kishtwar reviews performance of Kissan Khidmat Ghars, sets one-week deadline for 100% farm registration

KISHTWAR, FEBRUARY 18: A comprehensive review meeting of Krishi Udhyamis (KUs) associated with Kissan Khidmat Ghar (KKG) Kishtwar was held today under the chairmanship of Deputy Commissioner Kishtwar, Pankaj Kumar Sharma to assess the progress and performance of KKGs across the district.

During the meeting, CAO Kishtwar, Kushal Chandel informed that a total of 25,949 farmers have been registered under the KKG App.

However, only 2,789 farms approximately 10 percent of the registered farmers have been added to the KKG portal so far.

The progress of e-KYC was also reported to be significantly low, with only 315 cases completed to date.

It was further highlighted that daily reporting by Krishi Udhyamis remains unsatisfactory, as merely 20 KUs are submitting daily reports regularly.

Taking serious note of the slow pace of progress, the Deputy Commissioner directed all Krishi Udhyamis to intensify their efforts and ensure 100 percent farm registration of already registered farmers under the KKG App within one week.

He stressed the need for expediting e-KYC completion and maintaining consistent daily reporting without fail.

The Deputy Commissioner directed the allied departments to issue notices to non-functional or defunct KKGs and initiate the recruitment process for new Krishi Udhyamis wherever necessary.

He further directed that weekly progress under allied sectors be closely monitored to ensure timely achievement of targets.

The meeting was attended by CHO Kishtwar Sajid Mustafa, Incharge KVK Kishtwar Barjesh Ajriwat, LDM Kishtwar Harsh Rawal, NO KKG Kishtwar and other concerned officers and staff from concerned departments.
