President Ram Nath Kovind: “Through the implementation of the GST, we have realised the concept of ‘one country, one tax, one market’. Simultaneously, the process of creating a ‘one market for one nation’ is being strengthened by the ‘E-Naam’ scheme, which will benefit the farmers.”

President Ram Nath Kovind: “Through the ‘Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi’, more than 14 crore farmers, brothers and sisters are entitled to a minimum income of Rs 6,000 per year. This is helping our donors to live a respectable life.”

President Ram Nath Kovind: “Due to public participation, ‘Swachh Bharat Abhiyan’ has achieved impressive success in a very short time. This same spirit of participation is also reflected in the efforts being made in other areas – whether to give up LPG subsidy, or to promote digital payments.”

President Kovind: For public welfare, the government has launched several campaigns. It is particularly noteworthy that citizens have voluntarily given those campaigns the form of popular mass movements.
