Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan Calls for 'Swadeshi', 'Vocal for Local' Appeal on Janmashtami
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|August 17, 2025
Union Minister for Rural Development and Agriculture & Farmers' Welfare, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, on Saturday called upon citizens to embrace the spirit of Swadeshi and Vocal for Local on the occasion of Krishna Janmashtami.
Stressing that the idea must become a "mass movement," he urged people to adopt locally made products in their daily lives to empower farmers, artisans, and self-help groups.
In a video message shared on the social media platform X, Chouhan extended greetings on Janmashtami and drew a symbolic parallel from the life of Lord Krishna.
"I want to congratulate everyone on Krishna Janmashtami. May Lord Krishna bless you all. His message has the power to change the direction of our lives. When the cowherds were preparing to worship Indra, Krishna told them not to worship him, as he was far away. Instead, worship Govardhan, which sustains us every day. The Govardhan Parvat provides grass for cows, fruits from its trees, and medicinal herbs for our wellbeing," he said.
