On Tuesday in Varanasi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a significant step towards supporting farmers in India. In a ceremony called the PM Kisan Samman Sammelan, Modi released a total of Rs 20,000 crore as part of an income support scheme for over 9.26 crore farmers. This was Modi's first visit to his Lok Sabha constituency since being elected for a third consecutive term as prime minister.
Following his inauguration, Modi immediately got to work by signing his first file, which authorized the release of the 17th installment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi. Through this program, Modi was able to provide financial assistance to millions of farmers, amounting to more than Rs 20,000 crore. This was done through Direct Benefit Transfer, ensuring that the funds reached the intended recipients without any delay or interference.
The event was attended by various dignitaries, including Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan, and deputy Chief Ministers Keshav Prasad Maurya and Brajesh Pathak. They warmly welcomed Prime Minister Modi, showing their support and appreciation for his efforts to uplift the farming community.
This initiative by Modi is a testament to his commitment towards the welfare of farmers and their families. By providing direct financial assistance, he is not only easing their financial burden but also empowering them to improve their livelihoods. This is a crucial step towards ensuring the growth and development of the agricultural sector in India. With Modi's leadership and dedication, the future looks brighter for farmers across the country.
