Ranchi | July 2019
While addressing as Chief Guest on 38th foundation day of National Bank for Agricultural and Rural Development (NABARD), on Monday, Jharkhand Governor Draupadi Murmu said that the bank has done excellent work in providing credit in rural areas especially for farmers and self help groups to increase farm produce and employment in farm sector.
 
The Governor also appreciated the role of NABARD in rural development, especially for the interventions on financial inclusion, empowering rural women, natural resource management, rural infrastructure and institutional support.
“Jharkhand contributes 40 per cent of total revenue collected by Government of India from its mining sector but irony is that 70 per cent of total population still lives on agriculture. We have to do much in this sector as Prime Minister set the target to double income of the farmers till 2022,” said Murmu.

Padhi said that there is no end of development we have done many work to uplift farm sector of the State but still we have to go a very long.
