PM Modi launches multiple projects in Varanasi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that the white revolution can play important role in increasing the income of farmers that is why our double engine government is continuously supporting the farmers in the dairy sector. Prime Minister was speaking at the launching of 27 developmental projects worth over Rs 2000 crore including laying of the foundation stone for Banas Dairy in his parliamentary constituency Varanasi. On the occasion of 'Kisaan diwas' on Friday Prime Minister remembered former PM Chaudhary Charan Singh and appealed to the farmers that they should move forward towards natural farming which is most safe way of farming and it is also a big step towards making farming sector self-reliant. He said that we have to return to the nature farming which is the need of the hours.
He said that talking about cow and cow dung has been termed as crime by some people but for us it's our mother and they forget that lives of around eight crore people are dependent on it. PM said that from the ancient times cows have been the symbol of prosperity in our country but this sector was neglected for some time and now his government is taking steps to develop this sector with many schemes and programmes.The results are being seen in the 45 percent growth in the milk production in last 6-7 years. UP is now number one in milk production and leading in the expansion of dairy sector. He also said that, our dairy products have a big international market. Modi said that the dairy sector and even the common man was struggling to ascertain the quality of milk and that is why a logo with the pic of Kamdhenu cow has been released.

He said that Now Kashi is becoming a model of development and it is showcasing how the city can be developed along with keeping the ancient structure intact. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on the occasion that after the recent inauguration of Kashi Vishwanath Dham, the whole world is looking towards Varanasi which is getting not just physical but spiritual development also. Among the key projects launched during the day were Banas Dairy Kashi Sankul, a biogas plant in Ramnagar, a 50-bed Integrated Ayush Hospital at Bhadrasi, an inter-university centre for teachers education and a sewage treatment plant at Ramna village.
