Haryana Governor, Bandaru Dattatreya, while addressing the first session of the State's 15th Vidhan Sabha on Wednesday, said that in a bid to further empower farmers and boost rural development, about 500 new CM-PACS centers would be set up in the state. He said that these CM-PACS will serve as one-stop centers for training, marketing, and providing financial services for farmers.
He said that the present state government is establishing a vast network of cooperative organizations, such as Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) and PACS, to empower our farmers and enhance rural prosperity.
The Governor said that, additionally, the FPOs and PACS will be provided with interest-free loans up to Rs. 1 crore for building warehouses for grain storage.
He said that Haryana is an agrarian state, so the welfare of farmers is at the core of the present state government's policies.
