Ratings and reviews

As a developer, it's frustrating to encounter an application with so many issues. The "Register New Farmer" page is blank, and the chatbot is throwing errors. Other than the home page, nothing seems to be functioning properly. It's disappointing to see such a lack of quality in a developed application.

Is this app made for a common layman or to an IT expert, Help desk chat is not working always give us error messages, total time waste. Emails are deactivated so that no one could reach for any help. The helpline numbers given in portal are also inactive. When we approach agricultural officers they can't find or they do not have access to review our online application. If we would submit the originals why we have to upload documents. Very good initiative for Future digital india, all the best.
