He added that special focus was laid on ongoing measures aimed at increasing the revenue of the Board, which include installation of unipoles, e-auction of vacant plots and developmental works across mandis to facilitate farmers, commission agents, labourers and the public at large.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reiterating the State government\u2019s commitment, S.

He mentioned that for the ongoing Kharif procurement season 2025-26, the State has set up 1822 procurement centres with comprehensive arrangements including cleanliness, electricity, drinking water, washrooms, sheds and seating to ensure smooth operations for farmers, commission agents and labourers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The meeting also reviewed the progress made on decisions taken during the previous Board of Directors meeting.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prominent amongst others who were present in the meeting included Secretary Punjab Mandi Board Mr. Ramvir and officials of the Punjab Mandi Board and members of the Board of Directors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>29 MORE ATMs TO BE INSTALLED IN MANDIS TO BRING BANKING AT DOORSTEP OF FARMERS: HARCHAND SINGH BARSAT \u00a0 SAYS, COMMITTED TO ENHANCE REVENUE OF PUNJAB MANDI BOARD \u00a0 MULTIPLE AGENDAS APPROVED DURING BoD MEETING \u00a0 &#8220;ROBUST ARRANGEMENTS IN STATE MANDIS FOR ONGOING PADDY PADDY PROCUREMENT SEASON&#8221; Chandigarh\/ SAS Nagar, September 25: As part of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":51845,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2328,19,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-51844","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking","category-latest","category-punjab"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.2 -
