The Punjab Government has unveiled plans to launch six major schemes in the province, including the distribution of Kisan Cards to 5 lakh farmers. This initiative offers a valuable opportunity for eligible farmers to apply for the Kisan Card scheme through designated agriculture centers. By obtaining the Kisan Card, farmers can avail themselves of subsidized items for their fields and crops starting October 15.

Initiating the Distribution of 40,000 Kisan Cards

In an announcement made on September 10, 2024, the Chief Minister of Punjab disclosed the commencement of distributing Kisan Cards to registered individuals. Initially, 40,000 Kisan Cards will be issued to farmers for utilization after October 15, enabling them to access subsidized input items for their crops.

مریم نواز نے وزیراعلیٰ کے اقدامات کی ایک میٹنگ میں بات چیت کی اور جلد ہی پنجاب میں چھ اہم منصوبے شروع ہونے کا اعلان کیا، جن میں کسان کارڈ کی تقسیم، زرعی سامان کے پائلٹ پروجیکٹ، گرین ٹریکٹر سکیم، زرعتی خریداروں کے انٹرن شپ پروگرام اور ٹیوب ویل سولرائزیشن شامل ہیں۔

Empowering Farmers in Punjab Through Innovative Initiatives

By seamlessly connecting PLRA records with farmer registration databases managed by PITB, Punjab’s farmers are poised to undergo digital validation, ensuring efficiency and accuracy in the process.

Following land registration, verification from PMD, eECIB, and NADRA, farmers will receive the Chief Minister Kissan Card from the Bank of Punjab, streamlining access to essential services and financial support.

Transitioning towards a more inclusive approach, initially, 500,000 farmers will be eligible for the loan program on a first-come, first-served basis, with each farmer eligible to borrow up to Rs. 150,000 for 5 acres per season.

A significant development comes with the approval of the Agriculture Mall Project across four key districts, facilitating farmers in acquiring agricultural supplies, seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides alongside counseling services and financial assistance.

Featured Districts:

• Okara
• Bahawalpur
• Sahiwal
• Sargodha

Furthermore, the Fresh Agriculture Graduates Intern Program aims to educate 1,000 agriculture graduates in Punjab, while 10,000 tractors will be distributed to farmers throughout the year under the CM Green Tractor Scheme.

نتیجہ

حکومت کا پنجاب میں کسان کارڈ تقسیم ایک اہم قدم ہے جو پانچ لاکھ کسانوں کی معاونت کرنے کے لیے سبسڈیزڈ اشیاء اور مالی مدد فراہم کرنے کی سرگرمی ہے۔ موصولہ شرائط پر موجود کسانوں کو متعلقہ علاقائی زراعتی مراکز یا ایس ایم ایس کے ذریعے کسان کارڈ کے لیے رجسٹر کرنے کی ترویج دی جاتی ہے تاکہ وہ 15 اکتوبر سے شروع ہونے والے فوائد تک رسائی حاصل کر سکیں۔
