Government to be live on mobile; Union Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan dedicates new portal to farmers

On World Agriculture Day, accompanied by a message of dedicated service to farmers, Union Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan has taken a historic step today. He inaugurated a new digital portal specifically designed for farmers, guided by the core mantra—“The Government will be live on your mobile.” This initiative aims to make farmers’ lives easier and provide them with technological facilities that keep them connected to government services at all times and from anywhere.

During his speech, Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan stated that in today’s digital age, farmers are connected to modern technology, but they often face barriers in accessing government schemes, weather information, market rates, and other essential information. Through this new portal, the government has resolved to remove all these barriers. Farmers will now be able to receive live updates via their smartphones, eliminating the need to visit any government office. This portal will directly connect farmers to central government departments, ensuring a faster and more effective flow of information.

The Minister argued that a large portion of India’s population resides in rural areas, where internet access is rapidly expanding. In this context, utilizing mobile phones as a robust medium is the most effective and affordable method. This portal will not only provide farmers with information but also allow them to directly convey their complaints, suggestions, and problems to the concerned officials. This will enhance transparency and accelerate the process of rural development.

Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan appealed to farmers to use this new portal and make it a part of their daily work. He stated that the government’s priority is to empower farmers, and this digital revolution is a significant step in that direction. This effort will not only save time but also increase farmers’ awareness regarding their rights and available resources.

The portal is specially designed to suit farmers’ language and comprehension, enabling them to use it easily despite a lack of technical knowledge. Customized information based on various crops, seasons, and regions will be provided, which will prove highly useful for farmers. This initiative demonstrates the government’s commitment to standing with farmers and making every possible effort for their progress. The launch of this new portal marks the beginning of a new era for farmers, where the coordination between technology and agriculture will be improved.
