Question
Which one of the following is not an objective of the
Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY)? The State government and the Centre are working to resolve financial constraints that have left a major irrigation project such as Jigaon incomplete, by bringing it under Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY). The initiative came at a recent meeting between Union minister Nitin Gadkari and state Water Resources Minister Jayant Patil. Gadkari said, “Apart from 26 irrigation projects shortlisted under PMKSY, we want to add a few more to expedite its work and resolve financial problems.” High on the list is Jigaon irrigation project. Even after 23 years, the second biggest irrigation project Jigaon, in drought-hit district Buldhana in western Vidarbha region, has failed to make much headway. As a result, the promise of bringing one lakh hectares of land under irrigation is still a distant dream.Solution
