Elaborating on the usefulness of doing cashless transaction IFFCO MD Dr. U S Awasthi asked the farmers of Ujjain and Indore to adopt Kisan Credit Card and other means of cashless transaction so that the dream of Prime Minister could be achieved.
Indore was his 9th destination after Hosangabad and Jabalpur. Here he inaugurated a cooperative cold storage. “Today at the beginning of visit inaugurated a Cooperative Cold Storage in Indore. Operated by cooperative”, IFFCO MD wrote on twitter wall.
Later, Dr. Awasthi took part in the centenary year celebrations of Indore Premier Cooperative Bank where he was warmly received by Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat director on the KRIBHCO board with a bunch of flowers.
Addressing a gathering of about 2000 farmers, Awasthi said “We have to involve all farmers in cooperative activities
to give strength to our business. Cooperative is complete in itself. We have to adapt to technological innovations and refrain from using excessive urea in farming”.
He wrote in his tweet “The earth is our mother and it’s our duty to save it. No excessive use of urea”.
After Indore, he moved towards Ujjain a place known for Mahakaleshwar Temple.
Talking to farmers of Ujjain, Awasthi urged them to avoid excessive use of fertilizers and adopt drip irrigation. A stall had been setup to educate farmers about the benefits of cashless transactions through live demonstrations.
IFFCO Managing Director also went to Mahakaleshwar Temple during his visit to Ujjain and prayed for farmers, fellow cooperators and the entire IFFCO family. His tweet read “Visited Mahakaleshwar temple in Ujjain. Wished for prosperity for cooperators, farmers and entire family of IFFCO”.
In both Ujjain and Indore he asked farmers to adopt cashless transaction and said Kisan credit card will go a long way in solving cash problem. Readers would recall IFFCO is pitching in a big way helping farmers to learn how to do cashless transactions.
