Continuous efforts are being made to remove every small and big impediment in the way of farmers' journey from 'seed to market' and to ensure the progress of agriculture, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has told a farmer from Uttarakhand in a letter.
Replying to a letter written by Kheemanand Pandey from Nainital, who had congratulated the Prime Minister on the completion of five years of the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY), Mr. Modi said the scheme is continuously playing an important role in protecting the economic interests of hardworking farmers by reducing the risk associated with weather uncertainties. Crores of farmers are availing the benefits of this farmer-friendly insurance scheme, the Prime Minister noted in his reply to Kheemanand Pandey's letter.
