In his last monthly address, Modi had said that through these laws, demands of farmers had been met, which at one point of time or the other had been promised by every political party. He asked the youth, “specially those studying in agriculture” to go to nearby villages, and create awareness about the recently passed laws among the farmers. In his speech, Prime Minister Modi added that “new dimensions” were being added to farming and other allied industries.
In his last month's 'Mann Ki Baat', Prime Minister Modi said that “new dimensions” were being added to farming and other allied industries. “The agriculture reforms in the last few days have opened doors to new possibilities. For years, the demands of farmers, demands which were promised at some or the other time by every political party, those demands have been fulfilled. After lots of discussion, the Indian Parliament gave agricultural reforms a legal recognition. These reforms have not only removed many restrictions for farmers, but have given them new rights, and new opportunities,” Modi said.
