#12:45 pm:Â There was a time when there would be scarcity. We had to import food grains. Now, things have changed. Today, the time has come to give importance to innovation and value addition: PM
#12:42 pm:Â We are doing well in milk processing but we can do even better. And, I am sure if Amul thinks in this direction, it will surely happen even faster: Prime Minister Narendra Modi

#12:32 pm:Â For a long time, we had people sitting in Gandhinagar who disliked the cooperatives. They prevented the sector from acquiring a foothold in Saurashtra.

When he assumed office as the head of the municipality, he laid emphasis on urban development, planning and in that he worked on cooperative housing: Narendra Modi
#12:25 pm:Â In various parts of the world, at various times we saw what socialism is, we also saw capitalism. But, through Amul Sardar Patel showed another way. Here is a way where neither Government or industrialists call the shots. It is the people who matter. This is a unique model: PM Modi
