Dear Prer-na ji, Thanks for the invite.
Dear Fida,
I give below a write-up of one of the efforts by Ministry of Agriculture,Govt of India, to reach the farmers with valuable and TIMELY inputs and most important info' regarding their queries regarding urgent issues like plant protection + other issues of critical importance from their own village, instead of traveling to nearby towns.
Why don't you study the status of this service in terms of the farmer's perspective- Whether they are able to access this service easily, whether they were benefited with some specific instances they may like to share, any improvements they suggest, is it helpful in selling their produce for a good price, etc., by designing a suitable questionnaire?

The Department of Agriculture & Cooperation (DAC), Ministry of Agriculture, Govt. of India launched Kisan Call Centers on January 21, 2004 across the country to deliver extension services to the farming community.
The purpose of these call centers is to respond to issues raised by farmers, instantly, in the local language. There are call centers for every state which are expected to handle traffic from any part of the country. Queries related to agriculture and allied sectors are being addressed through these call centers.
A farmer from any part of the State can contact the Kisan Call Centre by dialing the toll free Telephone No. 1551 or 1800-180-1551 and present their problems/queries related to farming. The operator at the Kisan Call centre will attempt to answer the problems/queries of the farmers immediately. In case the operator at the Call Centre is not able to address the farmer's query immediately, the call will be forwarded to identified agricultural specialists.

Dear Abhinav,
Just like any percentile score is calculated. A percentile represents the rank of a candidate in an examination, relative to the rest of the candidates who appeared for the same examination in the same time-frame.
Let's say there were 10 students who gave an exam, including you.
If you ranked 1st, then there are 9 students behind you, or 90% of the test-takers are ranked after you. Which means that you have a 90%tile score.
If you stood 3rd, then there are 7 test-takers ranked after you. You will have a 70%tile score in this case.
If there is an exam where 1000 people appeared, including yourself, and you ranked 75th, then there were effectively 925 test-takers who were ranked below you (because they scored lesser marks than you did). In this case, your percentile score will be (925/1000)x100 = 92.5 %tile
Let's say 2,00,000 people appeared for CAT in a certain year. Everyone's net score was calculated, and all test-takers were sorted in descending order of their marks in CAT. Your rank was 1,500. In this case, your percentile score will be:
(198500/200000)x100 = 99.25 %tile.
