New funds under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM Kisan) scheme have been disbursed to eligible farmers across the country, marking the latest instalment of the central government’s income support program. The release was announced by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare as part of its ongoing effort to provide financial relief to small and marginal farmers.
In the state of Gujarat, officials used the same platform to unveil a series of dairy development projects aimed at boosting milk production and improving supply chain efficiency. The projects will involve the setting up of modern processing units and the provision of technical assistance to dairy cooperatives.
Additionally, Gujarat’s urban development authorities announced an expansion of the metro rail network, detailing plans to extend services to new suburbs and improve connectivity for commuters. The expansion is expected to complement the state’s broader infrastructure growth agenda.
Both the dairy initiatives and the metro extension are positioned as complementary measures to enhance rural incomes and urban mobility, aligning with the government’s broader development objectives.
The announcements come ahead of the upcoming fiscal planning cycle, signalling the administration’s focus on agricultural support, agro‑industrial growth, and urban infrastructure in Gujarat.
