| PM Modi To Launch Multiple Development Initiatives In UP’s Varanasi | | | Agencies
New Delhi, Dec 21: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Varanasi on Thursday and launch multiple development initiatives, including inaugurating and laying the foundation stones of 22 projects worth over ₹ 870 crore, his office said on Tuesday. It has been the constant endeavour of the prime minister to work for the development and economic progress of his Lok Sabha constituency, Varanasi, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said in a statement. Moving ahead in this direction, he will visit Varanasi and launch multiple development initiatives at around 1 pm on Thursday, it added. The prime minister will lay the foundation stone of the “Banas Dairy Sankul” at the Uttar Pradesh State Industrial Development Authority Food Park, Karkhiyaon, Varanasi.
Spread across 30 acres of land, the dairy will be built at a cost of about ₹ 475 crore and will have a facility for processing five lakh litres of milk per day, the PMO said.
This will strengthen the rural economy and help the farmers of the region by creating new opportunities for them, it added.
PM Modi will also digitally transfer a bonus of about ₹ 35 crore to the bank accounts of more than 1.7 lakh milk producers associated with the Banas Dairy.
He will lay the foundation stone for a biogas-based electricity generation plant for a Milk Producers’ Cooperative Union plant in Varanasi’s Ramnagar, the statement said.
It will be a key step towards making the plant energy self-sufficient, the PMO said.
PM Modi will also launch a portal and a logo dedicated to the Conformity Assessment Scheme of milk products, developed by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) with the help of the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB).
The unified logo, featuring both the BIS logo and the NDDB quality mark, will simplify the certification process for the dairy sector and reassure the public about dairy product quality.
In another effort to reduce the number of land ownership issues at the grassroots level, the prime minister will virtually distribute the rural residential rights record, “Gharauni”, under the Swamitva scheme of the Union Ministry of Panchayati Raj to over 20 lakh residents of Uttar Pradesh, the PMO said.
The programme will also witness PM Modi inaugurating and laying the foundation stones of 22 development projects worth over ₹ 870 crore, it said, adding that this will further strengthen the ongoing 360-degree transformation of Varanasi.
