The Group Chairman, Dr Sudhir Giri reminded during the Corona pandemic because of India’s strong agricultural and food economy we not only distributed food grains to our people but also supplied them to other nations of the world. This gesture proved India’s leadership abilities.
Dr. Yashveer Singh, the Chief Guest, emphasized that India’s robust agricultural economy enabled us to provide food grains, essential items, and medicines to both developed nations and our arch rivals, Pakistan and Bangladesh. This demonstrated our position as a global leader.
India’s robust agricultural economy allowed it to stand tall as a world leader and leading food producer while the rest of the world, including the USA and Britain, were facing a recession.
During the corona-induced lockdown, when the Govt. closed the industries, the farmer’s adoption of advanced farming techniques helped stabilize the country’s GDP.
He said because of advanced agriculture techniques & having the most fertile land India was the Golden Bird in earlier times.
