Vibodh Highlights Farmer Welfare Initiatives Under Modi Govt
As part of the nationwide celebrations marking the completion of 12 years of the Modi Government, senior BJP leader and former MLC Vibodh Gupta today visited village Mehari- Manyala located near the Line of Control (LOC), District Rajouri, met and felicitated progressive farmer Shri Balbir Raj, who has set an inspiring example by adopting organic and natural farming practices. He was accompanied by Senior BJP leader Yogesh Sharma, BJP Rajouri Dist. General Secretary Sanjay Sharma and Pritam Sharma
Vibodh Gupta said that over the last 12 years, under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has witnessed unprecedented progress across all sectors, with special focus on empowering farmers and strengthening rural communities under Modi Govt’s Farmer First Policy
He highlighted that the Central Government has introduced several farmer-centric initiatives aimed at improving agricultural productivity, increasing farmers’ income, ensuring financial security, and encouraging modern and sustainable farming practices. Schemes such as Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN), increasing Minimum Support Price (MSP) for major crops ensuring guaranteed returns, Kisan Credit Card scheme offering low-interest loans for agricultural needs, expansion of irrigation facilities, support for agricultural infrastructure, improved access to technology, and initiatives for better market linkages have brought a positive transformation in the lives of millions of farmers.
“Farmers are the backbone of our nation, and the Modi Government has worked continuously to make them partners in India’s growth story. The focus has shifted from only agriculture production to creating an empowered, prosperous and self-reliant farming community,” said Vibodh Gupta.
He further stated that the vision of Atma Nirbhar Bharat has encouraged local production, entrepreneurship, indigenous innovation, and sustainable development. From strengthening border villages with improved infrastructure and connectivity to promoting local talent and resources, the government has ensured that every region contributes to the journey of a developed India.
Praising farmers living in border areas, Vibodh Gupta said that their dedication reflects the spirit of resilience and commitment towards the nation. “Farmers like Balbir Raj demonstrate that villages near the LOC are not only guardians of our borders but also centres of innovation, growth and self-reliance,” he added. He called upon more farmers to adopt natural and organic farming methods, utilize government schemes, and become active contributors to the vision of a Viksit Bharat and Atma Nirbhar Bharat.
Senior BJP leader Yogesh Sharma highlighted that the government has worked with a clear vision of empowering every section of society, especially farmers, youth, women and rural communities. He said that initiatives focused on agriculture, infrastructure, digital connectivity and self-reliance have strengthened the foundation of a developed India. BJP Rajouri District General Secretary Sanjay Sharma said that the Modi Government has brought a new wave of transformation across villages and border areas through people-centric policies and development initiatives.
Pritam Sharma said that the last 12 years under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi have been a period of remarkable growth and empowerment for the nation.
