Latehar, 15 December (Hindustan Reporter). Jharkhand Agriculture Minister Shilpi Neha Tirkey reached Latehar on Sunday. During this, he met with the workers and discussed the strength of the organization. While holding a press conference on this occasion, the Agriculture Minister said that the promises made by the government to the public will be fulfilled at all costs. He said that the promise made to give MSP of paddy Rs 3200 to the farmers of Jharkhand will also be fulfilled. But it will take time. He said that only a week has passed since the government was formed. The ministers took charge two-three days ago. In such a situation, it is not possible to take any decision within two-three days. For this reason, this year the MSP of paddy will be Rs 2300 and the bonus will be Rs 100, making a total of Rs 2400. He said that the process of increasing MSP to Rs 3200 is also going on. The Agriculture Minister said that the government will not do any work under pressure from the opposition.
On the occasion, he said that special instructions have been given to all the officers to ensure that there is no disturbance of any kind in the purchase of paddy. If anyone is found wrong, strict action will be taken against him. The Agriculture Minister said that the process of strengthening Jharkhand’s LAMPS and PACS is also being expedited. The Agriculture Minister, while replying on Maiyan Samman Yojana, said that the sisters of Jharkhand will continue to get the benefits of this scheme.
Earlier, on reaching Latehar, Congress workers gave a warm welcome to the Agriculture Minister. On the occasion, Congress leaders Pankaj Tiwari, Harishankar Yadav, Sajan Kumar, Surendra Oraon, Amit Yadav and other workers gave him detailed information about the organization.
