District Collectors and Civil Supply Officers participated in the meeting via video conferencing, with Principal Secretary for Food Supply and Consumer Welfare, Sanjay Kumar Singh, presenting key details and addressing concerns related to the procurement process.

Sanjay Kumar Singh also highlighted the record success of the previous Kharif season, during which the state procured an unprecedented 73.45 LMT of paddy from nearly 16.6 lakh farmers. A total of Rs 16,853 crore was disbursed to farmers as Minimum Support Price (MSP), along with an additional Rs 5,862 crore in input assistance.
