Essential directives were issued to all concerned officials and PACS (Primary Agricultural Credit Society) managers present, aiming to streamline and enhance the efficiency of the procurement process.

SDO Priyanshu Chakraborty expressed concern over the slow progress in achieving paddy procurement targets and CMR submission. He issued clear instructions for all PACS managers and relevant officials to accelerate paddy procurement and ensure that farmers do not face any inconvenience.

Furthermore, the SDO clarified that strict action would be taken against officials and PACS managers found negligent in paddy procurement and CMR submission. He urged everyone to take their responsibilities seriously and work actively to achieve the set targets. The primary objective of this meeting was to ensure that farmers receive fair prices for their produce in a timely manner and to maintain the availability of essential paddy and rice for food security. The SDO expressed hope that adherence to these instructions would accelerate the paddy procurement and CMR submission processes, directly benefiting farmers.
