In a historic achievement, the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir has won the gold award (State Category B) for its outstanding efforts in promoting the One District One Product (ODOP) initiative. The prestigious accolade was presented during the national ODOP awards ceremony at Bharat Mandapam, Pragati Maidan, as part of the Aatmanirbhar Bharat Utsav 2024.

This event celebrated individuals and organizations that have made exceptional contributions to the ODOP Initiative, showcasing India’s cultural heritage, diverse artistic skills, and entrepreneurial spirit. The Managing Director of Jammu and Kashmir Trade Promotion Organization (JKTPO), Khalid Jahangir, proudly accepted the award on behalf of the Union Territory. The JKTPO, serving as the nodal agency for ODOP in Jammu and Kashmir, played a crucial role in promoting ODOP products from the region, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to the initiative.

Furthermore, the Shopian district of Jammu and Kashmir was honored with the bronze award in the Agriculture sector category under the District Awards. This recognition underscores the district’s commendable contribution to the ODOP initiative, particularly in the realm of horticulture, with a focus on apples as the designated ODOP product.

The ODOP awards ceremony not only marks a significant milestone in India’s journey toward self-reliance but also recognizes the exemplary efforts of the winners from Jammu and Kashmir in promoting the ODOP initiative. The Union Territory, under the leadership of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, serves as a shining example of dedication to fostering innovation and contributing to the economic and cultural growth of the nation.
