In a series of tweets, Shah said to further strengthen the Modi government's efforts towards an 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' (self-reliant India), the union cabinet has approved Animal Husbandry Infrastructure Development Fund worth Rs 15,000 crore.
"This enormous boost to the dairy sector will surely surge employment, increase milk productivity and exports," he said. The home minister said the private sector participation in space research activities has also been approved by the Modi government and this historic reform will unlock India's true space potential.
"IN-SPACe will accelerate growth of the space sector by promoting and guiding private industries in space activities," he said.

"This will provide a huge relief to small businesses which have been adversely affected by COVID," he said. The home minister said the cabinet has also approved an Ordinance to bring 1,482 urban cooperative and 58 multi-state cooperative banks under the supervision of the Reserve Bank of India and this will give an assurance to the bank depositors and boost their trust in the formal banking system by protecting their hard-earned money.
"I thank and congratulate PM Shri @narendramodi Ji, as cabinet today approved several landmark decisions. These decisions are yet another manifestation of Modi government's commitment towards self-reliance, welfare of poor, and strengthening the economy in these challenging times," he said.
