Congress neglected agri sector, says PM Modi; recounts his govt's steps to strengthen farmers
Taking a swipe at Congress, Prime Minister said on Saturday that the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government at the Centre had ignored the agricultural sector when it was in power from 2004 to 2014. However, since the Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) came to power, he recounted that several steps were taken to strengthen the farmers and make them self-reliant in the last 11 years.
