Sinchayee Yojana deals with Creation of new water sources through minor water system, Repair, reclamation, and redesign of conventional water bodies, Charge range advancement, Fortifying and production of dispersion organized from sources to the ranch and Creating and rejuvenating traditional water storage systems. Which of the following Components is the discussion about? 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.
