पूर्व प्रधानमंत्री एवं देश के सबसे सम्मानित किसान नेताओं में अग्रणी, चौधरी चरण सिंह जी को उनकी जयंती के अवसर पर मैं स्मरण एवं नमन करता हूँ।
चौधरी साहब आजीवन किसानों की समस्याओं को आवाज़ देते रहे और उनके कल्याण के लिए काम करते रहे। देश उनके योगदान को हमेशा याद रखेगा।

He further said, “Chaudhary Charan Singh wanted that the income of farmers of the country should increase, their crops should get remunerative prices and the honor of farmers should be protected. With his inspiration, our prime minister Narendra Modi has taken many steps in the interest of farmers. He will not let the farmers get hurt in any case.”
चौधरी चरण सिंह चाहते थे कि देश के किसानों की आमदनी बढ़े, उनकी फसलों का लाभकारी मूल्य मिले और किसानों का मान सम्मान सुरक्षित रहे।
हमारे प्रधानमंत्री श्री @narendramodi उनकी प्रेरणा से ही किसानों के हित में अनेक कदम उठा रहे हैं। किसानों का वे किसी सूरत में अहित नहीं होने देंगे।

The birth anniversary of former PM Chaudhary Charan Singh is also marked as Farmers’s Day. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh also extended greetings for the Day and said that he hopes farmers will end their agitation soon.
He said, “Today, on the occasion of Farmers Day, I greet all ‘annadaata’ of the country. They have provided the country with food security. Some farmers are agitated about agricultural laws. The government is talking to them with full sensitivity. I hope that they will withdraw their movement soon.”
आज किसान दिवस के अवसर मैं देश के सभी अन्नदाताओं का अभिनंदन करता हूँ। उन्होंने देश को खाद्य सुरक्षा का कवच प्रदान किया है।
कृषि क़ानूनों को लेकर कुछ किसान आंदोलनरत हैं। सरकार उनसे पूरी संवेदनशीलता के साथ बात कर रही है। मैं आशा करता हूँ कि वे जल्द ही अपने आंदोलन को वापिस लेगें।
