I am very happy to be in the midst of the people belonging to the village Dadh-Budruk. I understand that the people of the village through their own efforts have increased the agricultural production through the use of advanced agricultural technology. You have raised yourselves above the poverty line through your own collective efforts. I consider that this model can be replicated across the nation. After looking at your achievements, I am convinced that our nation with a strong, vibrant and billion plus population can contribute to realize these elements. I have prepared a eight point oath specially for you. Will you take the oath along with me? Are you ready?
