Agrarian economy
Agrarian economy can be the basis of the real turn around in the socio economic conditions in Jammu and Kashmir especially in rural areas. Local governance at the village level is very important for such growth and the panchayat members play a vital role for this purpose.
Recently LG Manoj Sinha while talking about the agrarian economy has said that a vibrant and productive agrarian economy is the foundation of high and sustained economic growth. As a watchdog of developmental activities, PRIs can help in making the governance more transparent and accountable to the citizens.
He said that the government has finalized a 100-point programme for Gram Swaraj Month. He released Coffee Table Book on IWMP sector achievements of District Udhampur.
In order to focus on saving the water especially the water sources in the villages of Jammu and Kashmir, for the save water campaign, PRI members, officials of J&K Administration took pledge to ‘Save Water’
He addressed 20,000 PRI members from across the UT during a Virtual PRI Conference organized by the Department of Rural Development and Panchayati Raj in collaboration with IMPARD, J&K at the Civil Secretariat.
He termed the Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) as the foundation of rural construction and development programmes. In governance, from policy to service delivery, PRIs act as the living cell of the system. By strengthening the PRIs, we are empowering a more effective system to truly realize the vision of Gram Swaraj.
