Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami lauds India's agricultural transformation under PM Modi. Key initiatives like PM-Kisan, Crop Insurance, and technological advancements have strengthened rural economies and boosted farmers' incomes. The state government is linking mountain products to markets and promoting horticulture and millets in remote areas.

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami has praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for spearheading a transformative journey in India's agricultural sector. According to Dhami's statement from the Chief Minister's Office, landmark initiatives over the past 12 years have significantly empowered farmers and bolstered rural economies.

Programs such as the PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi, Crop Insurance Scheme, and Kisan Credit Card have been instrumental in increasing farmers' incomes and making agriculture more sustainable. Dhami emphasized the state’s continuous efforts under Modi’s leadership, citing the 'House of Himalayas' initiative to connect mountain products with global markets.

The Uttarakhand government is also focused on promoting horticulture, natural farming, and agricultural mechanisation, particularly benefiting farmers in remote and border areas.
