The cabinet meeting was held at Pachmarhi to commemorate the valour and sacrifice of Raja Bhabhut Singh, the tribal ruler who stood and fought against the British empire to safeguard 'jal, jungle and jameen' (water, forest and land). The cabinet also cleared the proposal for transfer of the Pawarkheda Composite Logistics Hub Project, currently being implemented by M/s Kesar Multimodal Logistics Ltd to M/s DP World Multimodal Logistics Pvt Ltd. It also cleared the setting up of the "agritech hub / innovation hub for agriculture" at Indore. According to the state govt, the offices of the principal revenue commissioner and the commissioner of land records would be restructured to meet modern day needs. The restructured body will be called the office of the commissioner, land resource management, with a main and an auxiliary headquarters. Under the new structure, the positions of superintendent and assistant superintendent of land records will be aligned with those of tehsildar and naib tehsildar respectively. The additional tehsildars and naib tehsildars will be assigned judicial and non-judicial duties such as protocol, law and order and surveys. Having a dedicated tehsildar for judicial functions will facilitate daily proceedings in revenue courts, leading to faster disposal of revenue-related cases, said an official press release. To simplify procedures and reduce compliance burden on small and medium industries, the cabinet has approved amendments of three labour laws including Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, The Factories Act, 1948 and Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The Madhya Pradesh State Electronics Development Corporation (MPSEDC) under the department of science & technology will be the State's implementing partner for "agritech hub / innovation hub for agriculture" at Indore. A sum of Rs 2 crore will be provided to IIT Indore during the financial year 2025-26 for the establishment of this hub. The project supported by the ministry of electronics and IT, GoI, with an approved cost of Rs.14.98 crore will be implemented by IIT Indore in collaboration with ICAR-IISR Indore, ICAR-CIAE Bhopal and C-DAC Pune. One of the key objectives of the agritech hub is the establishment of a Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Agriculture at IIT Indore. This centre will launch 46 advanced agritech programmes, support 40 innovations, file 25 patents, incubate 8 startups and facilitate 10 technology transfers and licensing agreements through startups. In addition, the hub will accelerate the development of genomics and phenomics for improved crop traits, precision agriculture and drone-based imaging, emerging technologies for seed quality testing and high-performance computing, big data analytics, and machine learning for advanced agricultural research and productivity enhancement.
