PM Modi praised the farmers and honest taxpayers for making the scheme successful.
“Today, if the government is able to provide free food grains to the poor & the needy, the credit goes to two sections. First, the hardworking farmers of our country and second, the honest taxpayers. I thank you from my heart,” he said.
PM Modi also talked about the ‘One Nation, One Ration Card’ scheme and said the scheme would benefit thousands of migrant workers and their families who had no fixed home or income.
He further said that negligence in personal and social behaviour has been increasing since Unlock 1 has been started.
“Ever since Unlock 1 started in the country, negligence in personal and social behaviour has been increasing. Earlier, we were more cautious about the use of masks, ‘do gaj doori’ and washing hands several times a day for 20 seconds,” said PM Modi.
On the situation of coronavirus in the country, PM Modi said that in comparison to other countries across the globe, India is still in a very stable situation, in the battle against Covid-19. Timely decisions and measures have played a great role.
