Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta attended the 122nd Foundation Day celebration of the Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI) and appreciated the contributions of scientists and researchers.
The Chief Minister said the institute has transformed Indian agriculture by integrating science, innovation, and practical solutions, bridging the gap between laboratories and fields. From the Green Revolution to modern technology-driven farming, the institute has played a pivotal role in shaping the sector.
The Chief Minister noted that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the institute continues to empower farmers by taking knowledge to the grassroots and preparing Indian agriculture for the future.
Gupta returned to the capital after campaining in Kerala. “Namaskaram Alappuzha. The path to Viksit Bharat goes through Viksit Keralam. When the farmers and fishermen of Alappuzha prosper, when the youth become self-reliant, and when every family feels secure, development gains real meaning,” said the Chief Minister in a post on X.
“The present condition of Keralam is the result of years of policy paralysis, weak governance, and political opportunism. The reality is evident: UDF and LDF have pushed Keralam into a debt burden that weighs heavily on every household,” she said.
“Keralam now needs a new direction, one that is committed to Seva, guided by Sushasan, and dedicated to Vikas. I urge you all to join this mission of Viksit Keralam. Press the lotus and bless Shri M. J. Job ji with a decisive mandate,” she said on social media.
Later, on reaching Kochi, she said, “Landed in Kochi. Deeply grateful for the warm welcome from the BJP Keralam family. Looking forward to joining the mission of Vikasita Keralam in Alappuzha and Vaikom.”
