PM Modi highlighted that out of the targeted 10,000 Farmers Producers Organizations (FPOs), 8,000 have already been established, with their success stories gaining recognition internationally.
PRIME Minister Narendra Modi outlined the role of the cooperative sector in shaping the economy of the country while launching multiple key initiatives in the sector at Bharat Mandapam in Delhi on Saturday.
“Today, Bharat Mandapam is becoming a witness to another major accomplishment in the Amrit Yatra of Viksit Bharat. We are going ahead in realising this resolution of ‘Sahakar se Samridhi’ taken by the country. In strengthening the foundation of agriculture and farming, the power of cooperation plays a very big role”, PM Modi said while addressing a gathering at Bharat Mandapam.
“The cooperative sector is instrumental in shaping a resilient economy and propelling the development of rural areas. Sahkarita is not just a system, but also a feeling and a spirit!” he added.
“It can transform a simple subsistence system into a huge industrial capacity! This is a proven way of rejuvenating the country’s economy, especially the rural and agricultural economy,” the Prime Minister said.
Modernization of India’s agricultural systems is equally important for a developed India, he said. — ANI
