Prime Minister Narendra Modi has launched various development projects worth over 14,000 crore rupees in Banaskantha, including Ahmedabad Metro Phase-2A (Airport Extension) and Phase-2B (GIFT City Extension). Mr Modi also released the 24th instalment under PM-KISAN, amounting to 19 thousand crore rupees.
The Prime Minister is on a two-day visit to Gujarat, starting today. He received a grand welcome in Banaskantha this morning. He held a roadshow in Banaskantha and acknowledged the greetings of the people. During his visit, Mr Modi also toured an IVF laboratory and the Bharat Breeding and Research Centre in Bhildi, Banaskantha. Addressing the gathering, Prime Minister Modi said nearly four and a half lakh crore rupees from the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi have been directly transferred to the accounts of small farmers. He added that NDA government has taken care of small farmers and provided them assistance through the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi.
He added that the previous governments were only deceiving farmers even on the issue of MSP, but the NDA government has fulfilled the promise of MSP. Mr Modi said in the last 12 years, 24 lakh crore rupees have gone into the accounts of wheat and paddy farmers as MSP. Speaking about the welfare of the farmers, he added that PM Kisan Samman Nidhi has now become a part of the lives of millions of small farmers and an amount exceeding 18,000 crore rupees has been transferred to the accounts of nearly 10 crore farmers. The Prime Minister said more than 50 lakh farmers in Gujarat have also benefited from it.
Speaking about the global economic uncertainty, PM Modi said India’s rapid growth brings new hope for the world and it must move forward on the path of ‘Ek Bharat, Shreshth Bharat’. He added that the tensions in the Gulf are still ongoing, but the government did not let the burden of increased fertiliser prices fall on the people. Mr Modi said that when the nation is facing uncertainties emerging due to tensions in the Gulf, some people are spreading rumours about shortages of fertilisers and gas. The prime minister also called upon people, especially the youth, to take part in the Run for Unity to be organised across the nation tomorrow. He said people from Kashmir to Kanniyakumari and Kutch to Kamakhya should pay their tributes to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and repeat the country’s resolve for Ek Bharat, Shreshth Bharat.
