Guwahati, Dec 22: The agriculture and irrigation departments of the Assam government have forged a strategic alliance for consistent and timely irrigation in propelling the state’s agricultural sector towards development.

The collaborative session, which took a significant stride towards enhanced efficiency and shared objectives, was chaired by agriculture minister Atul Bora and irrigation minister Ashok Singhal, and attended by high-ranking officials from both departments.

The meeting, held at Janata Bhawan here on Friday afternoon, concluded with a mutual agreement to leverage each other’s infrastructure and technology for the implementation of various schemes.

Going forward, the irrigation department will initiate projects in designated areas based on recommendations from the department of agriculture.

Likewise, the department of agriculture will actively promote multi-crop cultivation among farmers in project-covered areas.

To ensure seamless coordination at the ground level, officials from both departments will collaborate closely and conduct joint review meetings on a monthly basis.

Additionally, ministers Bora and Singhal pledged to conduct joint visits to various areas regularly, aiming to inspire and galvanise communities to fortify the agricultural sector through effective irrigation practices.
