The state and the center worked together in the Corona period

At the beginning of his speech, Prime Minister Modi said that we saw in the Corona period how the state and the central government worked together.

This made the country successful. A good image of India was built in the world. Today, when the country is going to complete 75 years of its independence, the meeting of the Governing Council has become more important.

I would urge the states that committees should be formed by connecting all the people of the society in their respective states for 75 years of independence.

He said that the foundation of India’s development is that the Center and the States work together and move towards a certain direction and make Cooperative Federalism more meaningful.

Not only this, but we must also try to bring competitive, cooperative federalism not only in the states but also in the districts.

PM Modi spoke about farmers.

Prime Minister Modi said that today we bring edible oil worth 65,000-70,000 crores from outside, despite being called an agricultural country.

We can stop this. Money can go to our farmers’ accounts. Our farmer is entitled to this money, but for this, we have to make our plans that way. For this, it is necessary to guide the farmers.
