00:00It's a good thing that there was a war between Ukraine and Russia,
00:03because of which rice and wheat are being exported.
00:07The future of rice growers is not good.
00:10I told the Prime Minister, look, it's in the interest of the farmers.
00:14I have a dream.
00:16And that dream is that this country's farmers should be given the patronage of the country's petrol and diesel.
00:21Listen to me calmly.
00:24I am not just one of the leaders who talk about air.
00:28And I also tell you that when I speak clearly, sometimes people get angry.
00:33The future of rice growers is not good.
00:37Remember what I said.
00:39In India, rice is a surplus.
00:42In India, chickpea is a surplus.
00:45In India, corn is a surplus.
00:48In India, sugar is a surplus.
00:51There is only a lack of oil.
00:54I will request you to think about oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, mustard oil and Bhimukh oil.
01:03Because if you do this, it will be very good.
01:06Otherwise, the farmers will have a lot of trouble in the future.
01:09You are absolutely right that the government is not buying rice.
01:14Vinodji, there is no place in the warehouse to keep rice in Punjab and Haryana.
01:19It's a good thing that there was a war between Ukraine and Russia,
01:22because of which rice and wheat are being exported.
01:26And that's why the Indian government made a decision.
01:29I was behind this decision.
01:32Because there was a fight between food and fuel.
01:35I told the Prime Minister that it is in the interest of the farmers.
01:39And he decided that the farmers of this country will not only become food givers,
01:45the farmers of this country will become energy givers.
01:51And that's why we made the first decision to make ethanol from sugarcane juice.
01:56But the rice exported from Gondia and Bhandara districts will cost Rs. 12,000 to 15,000 crores.
02:04And it takes a lot of logistical costs to export rice.
02:08And that's why the meaning of dry port and satellite port is that we brought the sea of Mumbai to you.
02:16And that's why the place you have mentioned,
02:19I am already in Sangli, Solapur, Nashik with MIDC.
02:24We are making dry port.
02:26And the entire rice of Bhandara, Gondia and Balagad districts will be exported from there.
02:31Logistic costs will be reduced.
02:33And the farmers will get more rice prices.
02:35They will benefit.
02:37I am ready to start the work of this dry port immediately.
02:40I am ready to invest money.
02:42I am ready.
02:43You talk to the collector and give me that place immediately.
02:47Today, for the first time in our country, it was also recorded
02:50that in Gondia, instead of the Maharashtra government, they took Rs. 3.5 lakh as rent from us.
02:56Till date, we have never given money to the government.
02:59But your officials are very smart.
03:01They took advantage of this Rs. 3 lakh.
03:03But I am ready to give you Rs. 300 crores for free from the Maharashtra government.
03:08So you don't worry at all.
