Dr. Mohan Yadav announced plans to boost agriculture in Rewa, focusing on irrigation, natural farming, and crop diversification.
Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav addressed farmers participating in the Balaram Krishi Mahotsav in Rewa through video conference from Mantralaya on Monday. He announced that work on the Sleemanabad Tunnel is progressing rapidly towards completion, and upon its completion, Narmada water will reach the agricultural fields of Rewa, strengthening irrigation and drinking water facilities in the region.
The Chief Minister also informed farmers that the state government would provide free registered ownership documents to all patta holders whose land allotment documents do not yet have a formal registry. The state government will bear the registration cost for 50 lakh such pattas, estimated at around ₹4,000 crore.
