Narayanpet, Nagarkurnool districts receive national recognition for farm development under the Pradhan Mantri Dhan-Dhaanya Krishi Yojana

Narayanpet and Nagarkurnool districts have been honored nationally for their progress under the Pradhan Mantri Dhan-Dhaanya Krishi Yojana (PMDDKY). Both District Collectors, Ch. Priyanka and Hemanta Keshav Patil, were honored at a ceremony held in New Delhi. The award acknowledged the districts' commitment to agricultural growth, farmer welfare, and successful implementation of the scheme.

Ms. Priyanka praised the hard work of officials, emphasizing the need for improved coordination between departments. She acknowledged the collective efforts contributing to the recognition. Priyanka stressed that the award brought added responsibility to the administration, hoping it would inspire officials to enhance the execution of government initiatives.

The PMDDKY, launched on October 11, 2025, targets 100 districts, including Narayanpet, Jogulamba Gadwal, Jangaon, and Nagarkurnool, for low agricultural productivity, poor cropping intensity, and insufficient agricultural credit. This integrated scheme unites 36 Central government schemes from 11 departments alongside State government projects and private sector involvement.
