Has anybody tried Govt Call-Center No-1551 made 4 farmers ?

[sushil_sawant]

Doordarshan (marathi channel Sahyadri) advertises for some Govt-Call-Center No 1551. This is supposed to be some call-center for farmers to raise ANY-QUERRIES.
I tried that phone number at least 3000 times. I believe that the Ph.No-1551 is FAKE and that so-called call-center for farmer exists only on paper.

Is it a possibility that the some FAKE-BILLING is done by this so-called Call-center and highly placed PEOPLE SIPHON that money ??

I am amazed to see that the call goes NO-WHERE and ends abruptly when we wait for it to ring !!!

The Govt-Call-Center No 1551 is supposed to be TOLL-FREE for ENTIRE INDIA.

However it still does not work !!!

You can check with your Agril. department, because 1551 no. is being operated through Ministry of Agril,. Govt of India or else put an application under RTI act for getting information about services provided under this scheme.
