MODI GOVT PROMOTING AGRI START-UPS FOR YOUTH OF J&K

Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Friday said that concerted and technology-based effort has been made to promote the agriculture sector for young start-ups in Jammu and Kashmir for the first time in the last few years under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Singh accused earlier governments of deliberately discouraging start-ups in the region including in the Kashmir valley, so that “the youth could remain perpetually dependent on salaried government jobs and continue hanging around the political masters of the day.” Addressing an meet of Agricultural Start-Ups and farmers, organised jointly by Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences & Technology , the minister said, “It is for the first time in the last few years that under the leadership of PM Modi, concerted and technology-based effort has been made”
