New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi reaffirmed his government’s commitment to Bihar’s development, announcing the approval of the Kosi-Mechi Intra-State Link Project under the Prime Minister’s Agricultural Irrigation Scheme. The project aims to improve irrigation facilities and enhance farmers’ income in the region.
Taking to social media, PM Modi stated, “We are committed to the all-round development of Bihar. In this series, approval has been given today to the Kosi-Mechi Intra-State Link Project under the Prime Minister’s Agricultural Irrigation Scheme. This will not only provide water for irrigation to a large area but also increase the income of our farmer brothers and sisters.”
The Kosi-Mechi project is expected to significantly enhance water availability for agricultural purposes in Bihar, ensuring better crop yields and stability for farmers. The initiative aligns with the government’s broader vision of strengthening rural infrastructure and promoting sustainable agriculture through efficient water management.
