On the occasion, Minister Tirkey also met Karnataka Home Minister Priyank Kharge and extended Raksha Bandhan greetings to him.

During the meetings, political and contemporary issues were discussed, along with detailed deliberations on the development of the agriculture, animal husbandry and cooperative sectors in Jharkhand.

Particular attention was given to possibilities for technical cooperation between Karnataka and Jharkhand in the fields of agriculture and animal husbandry, exchange of new technologies for farmers, livestock management, milk production and processing, cooperative models, agricultural processing, and measures to enhance farmers' incomes.

Tirkey said Karnataka has undertaken several significant initiatives in the fields of agriculture, animal husbandry, the dairy sector and cooperatives, and better coordination and exchange of experiences between the two states in adapting such successful models could prove beneficial for farmers, livestock rearers and cooperative institutions in Jharkhand.

She further said that sharing of knowledge, technology and experience between Jharkhand and Karnataka can play an important role in strengthening farmers and the rural economy, adding that the state government is committed to adopting successful initiatives from different states for the benefit of Jharkhand's farmers and livestock rearers.
