Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said the public sector is essential but the role of the private sector is also vital. He said the private sector’s role can be seen everywhere including telecom and pharma. In his reply in Lok Sabha to the Motion of Thanks on the President’s address, the Prime Minister said if India is able to serve humanity, it is also due to the role of the private sector. He said the agriculture sector will not be strong if investment and new technologies are not brought. He stressed that there is a need to go beyond growing only wheat and paddy. The Prime Minister said the culture of abusing the private sector is no longer acceptable and this is akin to insulting a country’s youth.
He said he is surprised why people are asking what the need for the new farm laws was since farmers never asked for them. He said no one demanded law on dowry and triple talaq but laws were made as they were necessary for a progressive society. He pointed out that after the laws relating to agriculture were passed by Parliament, no Mandi has shut and MSP has also remained.
He alleged that those who are disrupting the House are doing so as per a well-planned strategy but their lies will soon be found out by the public. He appealed to the farmers to come to the table for talks so that a solution can be found. He said Lok Sabha as well as Centre respects the farmers who are voicing their views on the farm laws and this is why topmost Ministers of the Government are constantly talking to them.
