Chandigarh, Haryana Chief Secretary TV S N Prasad on Sunday reviewed the crop procurement drive in the state and directed officials to ensure that farmers get payment for their produce on time.
According to an official statement, he directed administrative secretaries, deputy commissioners of all districts and officials involved in Rabi crop procurement to ensure that farmers get payment for their crops within 72 hours of the issue of "J-Form".
