Other Information:
It
has been a joint venture between state government and Central Silk
Board to make the sericulture practices flourish in this
non-traditional zone of Sikkim State. In this regard continuous
efforts are being made by the Board also through the Regional
Extension Centre situate at Rangpo. Various programmes are being
launched like TAR, despite of financial assistance on subsidy to the
farmers and up-gradation of Govt. establishments under the CDP. And
in spite of every efforts from the govt. participating people are
found quite irresponsive also, which could also be overcome in the
near future for making this scheme a great success in the regions
like Sikkim State.
