This institute has a very important role in rural development. A glorious, prosperous and rich India is being built under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi and his resolve is to build a developed India by 2047.”
The Union Minister also said that the idea of a developed India will only be possible when the villages of the country are developed.
Addressing a MoUs signing event at the National Institute of Rural Development and Panchayati Raj (NIRDPR) in Rangareddy on Tuesday, “Development is incomplete without the development of the villages. Rural development is ours and PM Modi’s priority. On one side. rural development means infrastructural development.”
“Rural Development Ministry is working in this direction. Rural development also means that no one is poor in the village. Everyone should have employment. India cannot be a developed nation without the development of the villages. In this era of urbanisation, 70 per cent of the population still lives in rural areas,” he said.
“The courses here, are teaching rural development management. But what you learn is not just for you, you have to work for your village so that the nation also benefits from it. An MoU has been signed with the Indian Institute of Public Administration, it would also be useful,” he added.
Earlier last week, Union Minister of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, said that the Indian Council of Agricultural Research has developed 109 seed varieties that are adaptable to the changing climate and can yield well even in increasing temperatures and the government aims to ensure benefits of science and research directly reach farmers.
The release will encompass 109 varieties spanning 61 crops, including 34 field crops and 27 horticultural crops.
According to PMO’s statement, these efforts not only aim to improve nutrition but also to secure better income for farmers and create new entrepreneurial opportunities.-ANI
