After signing on to the release of funds, Modi said, “Ours is a government fully committed to ‘kisan kalyan’ (farmers welfare).  It is, therefore, fitting that the first file signed on taking charge is related to it.  We want to keep working even more for farmers and the agriculture sector in the times to come.  ” 

The decision signifies the government’s commitment to farmers’ welfare following the ruling National Democratic Alliance’s (NDA) poll win, albeit with some setbacks, especially in parts of rural India.
