Kurian Encourages Fishery Workers to Register for Benefits

Imagine a program to help fishermen and fish farmers, like a helping hand from the government!

George Kurian, a minister, wants everyone in the fishing business to sign up.

This program is called NFDP and helps people get insurance and other benefits.

He mentioned that the government is helping build better fishing spots and giving out low-interest loans.

They're also choosing villages to improve with new facilities.

The government will pay for these improvements with some help from the state.

India is a big fish producer, and the government wants to help the people involved in the fishing business succeed by providing them with Kisan Credit Cards and other opportunities.
