Chandigarh, May 24 -- Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini on Saturday asked the irrigation department to form farmer groups and construct community tanks for every 10 acres or more of agricultural land to ensure that adequate water reaches every field. Saini said these tanks will be filled with canal water, and irrigation will be carried out through micro-irrigation systems. "The government will provide an 85% subsidy for the construction of such tanks," Saini said. The CM, who chaired a review meeting regarding the five-year action plan under Haryana Vision-2047, said that the irrigation department must move beyond traditional irrigation systems. "In line with the concept of "Per Drop - More Crop" slogan of Prime Minister, the department must prepare future-ready plans aligned with developed countries that efficiently manage limited water resources, in order to achieve the goals of Viksit Bharat-2047,'' he said. Saini said that the cost of irrigation for farmers will be minimised, and under the new system, farmers will not need to install tube wells for irrigation. "This initiative should initially be implemented in nine districts of Bhiwani, Charkhi Dadri, Gurugram, Mahendragarh, Nuh, Rewari, Hisar, Jhajjar and Sirsa," he said. Saini said that the irrigation department will initiate tenders to convert entire village agricultural land into micro-irrigation systems in the selected nine districts, involving modern agri-technology companies. Haryana transport minister Anil Vij on Saturday said that Ambala Cantt is now one of the only few cities in the state where all 25 local service buses are environment friendly, electric, and air-conditioned. Vij addressed a gathering before flagging off 10 new electric air-conditioned buses near PWD Rest House. He said that there are now 25 new electrically air-conditioned buses here, which will make travel much easier, especially during the summer season....
