The 1982 issue belongs to India's participation in the FAO coinage program, a United Nations initiative that encouraged member nations to mint circulating coins carrying agricultural themes as a form of mass public education during ongoing food security campaigns. India was among the more prolific contributors to this program through the 1970s and 1980s, issuing multiple denominations across several years tied to specific FAO themes.
