Under the vibrant canopy of India’s 75th Republic Day celebrations, a new chapter unfolds. Distinguished guests from diverse fields will gather at Kartavya Path, but one group will stand out – over 1500 farmers, beneficiaries of central government schemes, invited to witness the parade as esteemed guests.
In a beautiful tribute to their tireless contributions, the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare (MoA&FW) is etching their names onto this historic occasion. These farmers, empowered by initiatives like Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana and Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana, will not just be spectators, but active participants in the day’s festivities.
But the journey begins before the parade’s grand spectacle. On January 25th, a dedicated training session awaits them, delving into key government initiatives like AIF, M&T, National Seeds Cooperation, and Per Drop More Crop. A visit to the prestigious PUSA Campus will further enrich their understanding of these programs.
On the 26th, with hearts swelling with pride, they’ll witness the parade’s majestic display of India’s military might and cultural tapestry. Following the parade, a special program awaits at Subramaniam Hall, PUSA. Union Minister Shri Arjun Munda, amidst esteemed dignitaries, will express his profound gratitude for their role in strengthening the nation’s economic backbone. His address will be a powerful testament to the government’s unwavering commitment to their well-being.
But this celebration goes beyond mere words. A photo session with the Minister and dignitaries will immortalize this momentous occasion, etching smiles of appreciation onto their faces. Finally, a curated lunch will serve as a fitting end to a day filled with recognition, appreciation, and shared joy.
This is not just an invitation; it’s a declaration. The MoA&FW, through this thoughtful gesture, paints a vibrant picture of India’s future – one where farmers are not just cultivators, but celebrated pillars of the nation. As they stand at Kartavya Path, they stand not only for their own achievements but for the millions of farmers who toil silently, ensuring food security for a nation.
So, let the Republic Day parade resonate with the echoes of their triumphs. Let the national flag flutter not just for military prowess, but for the unwavering spirit of the Indian farmer, tilling the land and nurturing a nation’s future.
