Speaking at a distribution function organized by the District Fishery at its office complex, MP Biswas said the farmers must make proper use of the implements to raise their standard of living, stated a press release. I urge upon the beneficiaries to make optimum use of the implements provided by the administration to raise production as well as their income for a better life, he said. Biswas cautioned them not to sell-off the implements for one-time gain but to make proper use for long term gains. If you sell-off the implements, you will earn only once. But if you make proper use of the implements, you will continue to make regular profits out of it, he said. Deputy Commissioner Moloy Bora, too urged upon the farmers to pitch in their efforts to make Matijuri Paikan an economically vibrant and resilient model village under Sansad Adarsh Gram Yojana (SAGY).
