• The application form can be obtained from the officers/personnel working at the Horticulture Mobile team Centres. It can also be downloaded from the department&amp;#39;s website: https://shm.uk.gov.in. Along with the application form/proposal, the applicant must submit land-related documents such as Khasra and Khatauni, a lease certificate (in case of leased land), Aadhaar Card, PAN Card, Udhyan Card, bank account details, and mobile number. At present, the application process is offline. - If the applicant faces any difficulty while completing the application, the personnel at the concerned Horticulture Mobile team Centre will provide assistance. The completed application form must be submitted at the same office. The personnel at the Horticulture Mobile team Centre then forward the proposal to the district level, which further forwards it to the Directorate. After the Directorate approves the farmers’ proposals, an approval/work order is issued to the respective districts.
• Once a farmer’s proposal is approved, the district officer sends an acceptance letter and also informs the farmer over the phone. The farmer then begins constructing the tube well/pond, after which an on-site inspection is conducted by departmental personnel. Based on the inspection report, the subsidy amount is transferred directly to the farmer’s bank account.
