PM Modi Gujarat Visit: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who arrived in Gujarat, addressed a seminar of leaders of various cooperative institutions on 'Sahakar Se Prosperity' in Gandhinagar on Saturday and participated in the inauguration of Nano Urea Plant constructed at IFFCO, Kalol. Inaugurating the country's first nano urea plant for self-reliant agriculture, PM Modi said, I am feeling special pleasure. Now the power of a sack of urea is contained in a bottle.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that about half a liter bottle of nano urea, one sack of the farmer will meet the requirement of urea. PM Modi said that cooperation is a great medium for self-support of the village and it has the energy of self-reliant India. For the construction of a self-reliant India, it is very important for the village to be self-reliant, so according to the path shown by Pujya Bapu and Sardar Saheb, we are moving towards a model cooperative village.

PM Modi said that after the formation of the government in 2014, we did the work of 100 percent neem coating of urea. This ensured that the farmers of the country got enough urea. Along with this, we started the work of restarting 5 closed fertilizer factories in UP, Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha and Telangana. Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that a 50 kg bag of urea costs Rs 3,500 in the urea that India imports from abroad, but the same urea bag is given to the farmer in the country for only Rs 300. That is, our government bears a load of Rs 3,200 on a bag of urea.

In his address in Gandhinagar, Prime Minister Narendra Modi also said that the Central Government has given a subsidy of Rs 1.60 lakh crore in fertilizer last year so that the farmer of India does not face any problem. This relief to the farmers is going to be more than Rs 2 lakh crore this year.
