Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said that India’s Millet Mission will become a blessing for 2.5 crore marginal farmers. After independence, this is for the first time that a government is paying attention to the needs of millet-producing farmers, he added.

During the inauguration of the Global Millets (Shree Anna) Conference in Pusa, New Delhi, Modi said, “India’s Millet Mission will become a blessing for 2.5 crore marginal farmers. After independence, this is for the first time that a government is paying attention to the needs of millet-producing farmers.” He added, “In India, millets are primarily grown in 12-13 states. However, in these states, the domestic consumption per person was not more than 2-3 kgs per month. Today, it has increased to 14 kg per month.”

He stated that events like the Global Millets (Shri Anna) Conference are not only important for the global good but also a symbol of India’s increasing responsibility for global good.

“When we take a resolution forward, the responsibility of taking it to perfection is equally important. I am happy that today when the world is celebrating ‘International Millet Year’, India is leading this campaign,” he further said.

He added that it is a matter of great honour for the country that after India’s proposal and efforts, the United Nations declared 2023 as the ‘International Year of Millets’. More than 75 lakh farmers of India are virtually present with us in this ceremony today, which shows its importance, he further added.
