Shri Narendra Modi opposed FDI in multi brand retail

FDI in multi brand retail will harm small shopkeepers, adversely affect domestic manufacturing sector and create joblessness: Shri Modi

Shri Modi has also severely criticized anti-people diesel hike and on the day UPA made this regressive announcement, Shri Modi announced relief measures for farmers

 

The decision to allow Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in multi brand retail sector by the Congress-led UPA has been strongly opposed by Shri Narendra Modi. The Chief Minister has termed this move as anti-people.

Shri Modi said that allowing FDI in multi brand retail would mean immense harm to small shopkeepers, hit the domestic manufacturing sector and create joblessness. The Chief Minister added that this would also mean cheap good produced outside being dumped into our nation.

Since yesterday, Shri Modi has strongly opposed the diesel price hike and the decision to rationalize LPG cylinders per household. Infact, on the same day the UPA announced these regressive decisions, Shri Modi announced 100% relief on loans and 50% relief on electricity bills for farmers. This decision by Shri Modi has been hailed all over.

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam highlighting the blessings of Mother Earth:

"अस्मे वोऽअस्त्विन्द्रियमस्मे नृम्णमुत क्रतुरस्मे वर्चांसि सन्तु वः।

नमो मात्रे पृथिव्यै नमो मात्रै पृथिव्याऽ इयन्ते राड् यन्तासि यमनो ध्रुवोसि धरुणः कृष्यै त्वा क्षेमाय त्वा रय्यै त्वा पोषाय त्वा॥"

The Subhashitam conveys, "We bow to mother Earth, from whom we receive wealth and the means essential for life. You are steadfast, sustaining all and keeping everything in balance. We seek your refuge for agriculture, prosperity, and our nourishment."

“अस्मे वोऽअस्त्विन्द्रियमस्मे नृम्णमुत क्रतुरस्मे वर्चांसि सन्तु वः।

नमो मात्रे पृथिव्यै नमो मात्रै पृथिव्याऽ इयन्ते राड् यन्तासि यमनो ध्रुवोसि धरुणः कृष्यै त्वा क्षेमाय त्वा रय्यै त्वा पोषाय त्वा॥"
