Prime Minister Narendra Modi today inaugurated six mega projects in Uttarakhand through video conferencing under the ‘Namami Gange Mission’. These projects include construction of a new wastewater treatment plant (STP) with a capacity of 68 million liters, upgrading of 27 MLD capacity STP at Jagjitpur in Haridwar and 18 MLD capacity STP at Sarai, Haridwar.
These projects have been awarded under the Namami Gange Mission.
A museum dedicated to Ganga was also released during the program. Modi has also launched the logo of Jal Jeevan Mission.
Targeting the opposition PM Modi said, “Even today when the central government is giving farmers their rights, these people came down on the protest. These people want that the farmers of the country could not sell their produce in the open market. These people are now insulting the farmers by setting fire to the goods and equipment which the farmer worships”.
The PM said, ”for years these people (opposition) kept saying that they would implement MSP, but did not. Our government did the work of implementing the MSP as per the wish of the Swaminathan Commission. Today these people are also spreading confusion over MSP. There will also be MSP in the country and the farmer will also have the freedom to sell crops anywhere in the country, but some people are not able to tolerate this freedom. Another means of their black earning has ended. So they are having problems”.
