PM Modi made the remarks as he launched two major agricultural schemes with an outlay of ₹35,440 crore to boost pulses production and improve the farm sector growth in 100 low-performing districts. The two schemes - PM Dhan Dhaanya Krishi Yojana with an outlay of ₹24,000 crore that aims to transform agriculture across 100 districts; and a ₹11,440-crore Mission for Aatmanirbharta in Pulses - will transform the fortunes of millions of farmers in India, he added.
