SRINAGAR, MAY 4: Chief Secretary, Atal Dulloo today chaired a comprehensive review meeting to assess the functioning and progress of the Jammu & Kashmir MSME Health Clinic (JKMHC), a digital initiative aimed at diagnosing, reviving and strengthening micro, small and medium enterprises across the Union Territory.
The meeting besides Commissioner Secretary, Industries and Commerce and Director, IIM Jammu was attended by Executive Director, JKEDI; Director, Industries Jammu; Director, Employment and other concerned officers.
During the meeting, Chief Secretary issued a series of strategic directions aimed at strengthening the effectiveness and institutional capacity of the MSME Health Clinic. He emphasized the adoption of an advanced, Large Language Model (LLM)-based solution for conducting root cause analysis of stressed units, with a mature agentic AI framework backed by appropriate guardrails.
He also directed that the system be trained on local datasets to enhance contextual relevance and explore development on indigenous platforms such as BharatGenetc.
Highlighting the importance of evidence-based interventions, the Chief Secretary called for the preparation of detailed case studies based on field-level diagnostics, citing the need for grassroots-driven analysis to inform policy and rehabilitation strategies.
He further stressed that capacity building should be a continuous process rather than a one-time exercise, directing that structured training programmes be conducted at least once every two months to build sustained expertise at the district level.
To strengthen institutional convergence, the Chief Secretary directed that experts from the Small Business Development Unit (SBDU) established under Mission YUVA be formally integrated into the MSME Health Clinic framework, with dedicated personnel deployed for implementation support.
