Republic Day signifies governance of the people, by the people, and for the people. I thank Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi for ensuring that on Republic Day, the farmers of our nation were part of the parade.

Agriculture is the backbone of the Indian economy and farmers are its soul and lifeblood.

Serving farmers is like worshipping God for me, and it is with this spirit that the Ministry of Agriculture is working under the leadership of the Prime Minister ShriNarendra Modi.

A prosperous India requires prosperous farmers, and the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare is making every possible effort in this direction.
