Extends Best Wishes and Commends the DG’s Exceptional Dedication to Agricultural Advancement
Mr. Dheeraj Choudhary recently met Dr. M.L. Jat, the newly appointed Director General of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), at the council’s headquarters in Krishi Bhawan, Central Secretariat New Delhi. During the meeting, Mr. Choudhary extended his warm congratulations and best wishes to Dr. Jat on assuming his prestigious new role.
Mr. Choudhary expressed profound appreciation for Dr. Jat’s steadfast commitment and visionary approach to elevating Indian agricultural research. He shared his admiration for the Director General’s tireless dedication, highlighting Dr. Jat’s exceptional work ethic - so focused on his mission that he reportedly sleeps for only three hours a day. Mr. Choudhary remarked that such relentless drive is a clear reflection of Dr. Jat’s passion for innovation in agriculture and his deep-rooted commitment to the welfare of India’s farming community.
Dr. M.L. Jat, a distinguished scientist in the field of agricultural sciences, has taken charge of ICAR with a clearly defined vision for impactful research, climate-resilient and sustainable practices, and farmer-first development strategies. Under his leadership, ICAR is expected to witness renewed vigor and broader national impact through scientific collaboration and inclusive growth.
As part of his agenda, Dr. Jat has called upon scientists and students across the country to actively participate in the Viksh*t Krishi Sankalp Abhiyaan – Pre-Kharif Season 2025, an initiative launched by Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Hon’ble Union Minister of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Government of India. The campaign aims to strengthen agricultural preparedness and innovation ahead of the upcoming Kharif season.
