Now, made-in-Bundelkhand cannons
Chitrakoot, 29 February. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the defence corridor will gain momentum from the Bundelkhand Expressway. The picture of Bundelkhand, facing negligence over the years, will change with these two projects. He said that now, made-in-Bundelkhand cannons will fight the enemies. The income of farmers here will also be doubled with the construction of 296 km long Bundelkhand Expressway which is to be built at a cost of around Rs. 15,000 crores.
The Chief Minister was addressing the gathering after Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone of Bundelkhand Expressway at Bharatkup in Chitrakoot on Saturday. He said that Maryada Purushottam Lord Shri Ram had spent the most time on this holy land during his exile period. In order to take Bundelkhand to new heights, Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited this holy land of Chitrakoot today.
CM Yogi said that during the difficult time of Lord Shri Ram, Chitrakoot became his support system. In same way, PM Modi has ended the 500- years wait for the construction of Lord Shri Ram temple in Ayodhya.
The Chief Minister said that earlier the Prime Minister had started the ‘Har Ghar Nal Jal Yojana’. The supply of pure drinking water is going to start from this month. On the demand of the farmer of Bundelkhand, the Prime Minister covered all the farmers under ‘PM Samman Kisan Nidhi’. Farmers are getting Rs. 6,000 annually. Total of Rs. 11000 crores have been directly transferred to the account of 2 crores 5 lakh farmers of Uttar Pradesh, he added.
He further said that after the Pulwama attack, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said in Jhansi that our soldiers will decide when, where and how to take revenge. The defence corridor is being built in Bundelkhand. The youth of Bundelkhand will not have to flee to other places. Our Chitrakoot Dham will be seen as a spiritual and cultural city realizing the dreams of ‘Rashtra Rishi Nanaji Deshmukh’, who founded the Gramodaya University in Chitrakoot, the Chief Minister said.
The Chief Minister said that the launch of Farmer Producer Organizations (FPO) and Kisan Credit Card will fulfill the dreams of all farmers. With the construction of the Bundelkhand Expressway, the Defence Corridor will provide employment to youth. Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with CM Yogi launched the Kisan Credit Card and Agricultural Products Organization on the occasion of the anniversary of the Pradhan Mantri Samman Nidhi. During this, the Prime Minister also distributed Kisan Credit Card to farmers coming from different parts of the country including Gujarat, Karnataka, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, and Assam.
Bundelkhand is now ready to change the fate of India: Prime Minister Narendra Modi
PM Modi began his address in Bundeli language on the occasion of laying the foundation stone of the Bundelkhand Expressway, distribution of free Kisan credit card to farmers receiving PM Samman Nidhi and inauguration of 10,000 Agricultural Produce Organization across the country.
Prime Minister Modi said that every penny emanating from Delhi is reaching the needy. Earlier the money of the schemes did not reach the beneficiaries. The Uttar Pradesh government led by Yogi Adityanath has started the ‘One District One Product’ (ODOP) scheme and FPO is being linked to this. An FPO will be formed in every block, he said.
The Prime Minister said that the Yogi government is working at a fast pace. The Bundelkhand Expressway, Purvanchal Expressway and the proposed Ganga Expressway will create new jobs in Uttar Pradesh in the coming days. The Bundelkhand Expressway will give a momentum to the defence corridor. This area of revolutionaries will be known for creating defence goods in the coming days.
He said that the Bundelkhand Expressway will perform the task of changing the lives of the entire region. An exhibition of successful FPOs all over the country is being held here. This exhibition should be visited. Around 5000 crore rupees will be spent on the benefits of the farmers in five years. To increase the income of the farmer, a 16 point plan has been formulated, the Prime Minister said.
