Dr Kurien’s vision is of greater relevance in the context of farm sector: Kerala CM

Thiruvananthapuram, Nov 26 (UNI) Recalling the outstanding contributions of Dr. Verghese Kurien to the inclusive growth of the rural sector, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Friday said the vision of the Father of India’s White Revolution is of increased relevance at a time when the country’s agricultural and co-operative sectors are facing consequences of defective policies.
The Chief Minister was speaking after virtually unveiling the statue of Dr. Verghese Kurien, installed at Milma Bhavan, besides inaugurating the National Milk Day celebrations and the valedictory of the year-long Dr. Verghese Kurien centenary celebrations under the aegis of the Kerala Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation (KCMMF).
“Recalling the contributions of Dr. Verghese Kurien becomes significant on two counts. He is the architect of India’s White Revolution that imparted a great momentum to the country’s dairy sector. He also reminds us of the substantial contributions that the co-operative sector can make to economic development”, the Chief Minister said.
