Inaugurating Kisan Sarvoday Yojana, under which farmers will be able to avail power supply from 5 am to 9 pm for irrigation purposes, PM Modi said, "Farmers will get day-time power supply. Those who know about agriculture are aware that farmers get electricity only at night. But now this will change for Gujarat farmers. But there should be more focus to save water. One drop, more crop should be our mantra. If we waste water as we will be getting water throughout the day, then the purpose will be defeated."
