J&K elementary edu allocation falls 38% to Rs 633 cr
Srinagar, Aug 10: The Centre has sharply reduced its allocation for elementary education in Jammu & Kashmir under the Samagra Shiksha scheme, with the provision falling to Rs 633.53 crore for 2026-27. The allocation represents a decline of nearly 38 per cent from Rs 1,017.75 crore sanctioned for2025-26.It is also significantly lower than the Rs 1,180.11 crore allocated in 2024-25 and Rs 1,234.55 crore in 2023-24. The figures were placed before the Lok Sabha by Union Education Minister Pralhad Joshi in response to a starred question concerning the allocation and utilisation of funds for primary education. For 2026-27, J&K's allocation is considerably lower than that of several major states. Maharashtra has been allocated Rs 1,744.65 crore, while Uttar Pradesh has received Rs 8,898.96 crore. Bihar has been allocated Rs 5,970.76 crore and Rajasthan Rs 3,081.48 crore. The Centre said allocations under Samagra Shiksha depend on approved annual plans, expenditure levels and compliance with financial requirements. It also pointed to unspent balances from previous yearswhiledetermining the release of subsequent funds. According to the government, some states and Union Territories are unable to receive all instalments because of slower spending. Further releases are linked to requirements such as audited accounts, utilisation certificates, updated expenditure details and the release of the corresponding state share. The Ministry also highlighted the PRABANDH system, which tracks the implementation and expenditure of Samagra Shiksha programmes. Its dashboard records monthly physical and financial progress, while the Ministry conducts regular reviews with states and UTs. At the national level, spending on infrastructure under the scheme increased from Rs 1,962.77 crore in 2024-25 to Rs 2,871.95 crore in 2025-26. Expenditure on teacher salaries, however, stood at Rs 17,234.40 crore and Rs 13,508.69 crore during the respective years. Spending on free textbooks declined from Rs 2,551.33 crore in 2024-25 to Rs 2,353.23 crore in 2025-26. Expenditure on free uniforms increased marginally from Rs 3,845.93 crore to Rs 3,871.02 crore. The government also informed Parliament that Education Cess collections increased from Rs 63,252.86 crore in 2024-25 to Rs 65,890.50 crore in 2025-26. It said the cess is outside the divisible pool of taxes and is therefore not shared between the Centre and states under Article 270 of the Constitution. Education-related proceeds are routed through the Prarambhik Shiksha Kosh and the Madhyamik and Uchchtar Shiksha Kosh. Utilisation from the Prarambhik Shiksha Kosh rose from Rs 40,900 crore in 2024-25 to Rs 48,049.09 crore in 2025-26. Utilisation from the Madhyamik and Uchchtar Shiksha Kosh stood at Rs 11,162.60 crore and Rs 10,314.31 crore respectively during the two years.I can also make this more newspaper-style with a sharper lead and stronger J&K angle.

J&K farmers receive Rs 119.67 Cr under crop insurance scheme; Rs 10.15 Cr claims still pending
Srinagar, Aug 8:Farmers in Jammu and Kashmir have received Rs 119.67 crore in crop insurance claims under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) between 2022-23 and 2025-26, while claims worth Rs 10.15 crore remained pending as of July 24, 2026, according to data furnished by the Union Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare in the Rajya Sabha. The figures were provided by Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Ramnath Thakur in response to Unstarred Question No 1452, asked by Rajya Sabha member Ranjeet Ranjan. The question sought State and UT-wise details of premiums collected, claims reported, claims paid and pending claims under PMFBY since 2022. According to Annexure-I of the government reply, J&K farmers contributed Rs 53.97 crore as their share of premium during 2022-23 to 2025-26. Against this, claims amounting to Rs 129.82 crore were reported, of which Rs 119.67 crore had been paid and Rs 10.15 crore remained pending as on July 24, 2026. The data indicates that around 92.2 percent of the reported claim value had been paid, leaving approximately 7.8 percent pending. At the national level, the government reported farmer premium contributions of Rs14,623.05 crore against reported claims of Rs 70,686.44 crore under PMFBY during the same period. Of the reported claims, Rs 66,159.24 crore had been paid, while Rs 4527.20 crore remained pending. This means J&K accounted for about 0.18 percent of the total farmer premium contribution and around 0.18 percent of reported claims under the states and UTs. The government data also provides details of private-sector general insurance companies selected by State Governments through the tendering process for implementation of PMFBY. In Jammu and Kashmir, IFFCO Tokio and IndusInd General were selected for the scheme in each of the years 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. For 2025, the list expanded to three insurers Bajaj General, IndusInd General, and Kshema General. The data thus shows a change in the insurer mix in J&K from two participating private insurers during 2021-24 to three in 2025. The ministry has clarified that the state-wise insurer details relate to private-sector general insurance companies selected by the respective state governments for implementation of PMFBY through the tendering process. The J&K figure of Rs 10.15 crore in pending claims is considerably lower in absolute terms than the pending claim liabilities reported in several larger agricultural states. Rajasthan had the highest pending claim value in the state-wise table at Rs 890.45 crore, followed by Andhra Pradesh at Rs 2,817.86 crore, Maharashtra at Rs 222.96 crore, Madhya Pradesh at Rs 118.36 crore, and Karnataka at Rs 113.62 crore. Haryana had Rs 103.11 crore pending, while Uttar Pradesh had Rs 81.06 crore. However, the absolute value of pending claims needs to be read alongside the scale of agricultural coverage and claims reported in each State. In J&K, Rs 129.82 crore worth of claims were reported over the four years, with Rs 119.67 crore already paid.
Women make up 74.73% of J&Ks agri workforce
Srinagar, Aug 07: Women account for 74.73 per cent of the workforce engaged in agriculture in Jammu and Kashmir, compared with the national figure of 59.81 per cent, while holdings operated by women account for 7.6 per cent of total operational holdings in the Union Territory, according to data tabled by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare in the Rajya Sabha. The figures come from two different datasets. The workforce figure is based on the Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS) 2025, while the figure for operational holdings operated by women comes from the Agriculture Census 2015-16. The national share of such holdings was 13.96 per cent. J&K recorded the fourth-highest share of women in the agricultural workforce among States and Union Territories, after Rajasthan at 78.12 per cent, Himachal Pradesh at 77.34 per cent and Jharkhand at 75.57 per cent. Bihar followed J&K at 74.58 per cent. The data was given in response to an unstarred question by MP Smt. Renuka Chowdhury on women engaged in agriculture and allied activities. Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Ramnath Thakur gave the reply. Support for women farmers Asked whether women engaged in agriculture without land titles are recognised as farmers for government schemes, institutional credit, crop insurance, compensation and other agricultural benefits, the government referred to various schemes being implemented to support women farmers. The Department of Land Resources under the Ministry of Rural Development has also written to all States and Union Territories to introduce a gender column in the Record of Rights to help extend credit, insurance and other benefits to women farmers. Under the Modified Interest Subvention Scheme, female account holders accounted for around 22 per cent of the 5.4 crore beneficiaries receiving agricultural credit subsidy during 2024-25. Under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana, 21 per cent of enrolled farmers were women during 2024-25. The government said the crop insurance scheme allows willing farmers, including sharecroppers, tenant farmers and women farmers, to enrol. Under the Agriculture Technology Management Agency scheme, at least 30 per cent of resources meant for programmes and activities are required to be allocated to women farmers and women extension functionaries. The government also said women beneficiaries under the Integrated Scheme for Agricultural Marketing receive assistance at a higher rate of 33.33 per cent, compared with 25 per cent for other beneficiaries. Under the scheme for formation and promotion of 10,000 Farmer Producer Organisations, special provisions have been made to include women farmers and women Self Help Groups as members. The government said 914 FPOs have 100 per cent women shareholders. Under the Sub Mission on Agricultural Mechanisation, women farmers are eligible for financial assistance of 50 per cent of the cost of machinery. The government also said 2,18,66,774 women beneficiaries received benefits under the 23rd instalment of PM-KISAN. No specific legislative proposal On whether the government is considering legislative or policy measures to formally recognise women cultivators and tenant women farmers irrespective of land ownership, the reply did not mention any specific legislative proposal. It referred instead to existing schemes and the move to introduce a gender column in land records to improve womens access to credit, insurance and other agricultural benefits.

Amit Uniyal Appointed Punjab Mens Head Coach As PCA Overhauls Coaching Staff
Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy: In a major administrative shake-up ahead of the 2026/27 domestic season, the Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) has overhauled its senior men's coaching staff and named former left-arm seamer Amit Uniyal as the new head coach in place of Sandeep Sharma. Alongside Uniyal, the PCA appointed TP Singh as the batting coach, Harmeet Singh as the bowling coach, and Manish Sharma as the fielding coach. They replace Uday Kaul, Gagandeep Singh, and Sandeep Sanwal, respectively. Uniyal, who represented Punjab in 29 First-Class and 46 List A matches, represented Rajasthan Royals in 2009 IPL. He now becomes Punjab's fourth head coach in four seasons following short stints by Aavishkar Salvi, Wasim Jaffer, and Sandeep Sharma. The overhaul comes on the back of Punjab's persistent struggles in red-ball cricket. While the side lifted the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy in 2023/24, their Ranji Trophy record has been dismal, securing just three wins against ten losses across the last three seasons. Since everyone wants to play in the IPL nowadays, they focus more on T20 cricket. But we have the potential, we have the talent, all we need is to play as a unit. We want to do better in red-ball cricket this time, and for that, you need bowlers who can take 20 wickets. So we will work towards that, Uniyal was quoted as saying by Cricinfo on Saturday. Since the end of his playing days, Uniyal has been part of various coaching set-ups and selection committees for Chandigarh. He was their assistant coach in the 2020/21 season and then chairman of selectors last season. Since everyone wants to play in the IPL nowadays, they focus more on T20 cricket.
