Amit Shah's Vision for Retirement

Union Home Minister Amit Shah has made a significant announcement regarding his retirement plans. He revealed that after stepping down, he intends to devote his life to natural farming. This statement was made during an event in Ahmedabad.

Shah shared insights into his post-retirement life, expressing his desire to spend time studying Hindu scriptures, including the Vedas and Upanishads, alongside focusing on natural farming. Speaking at the 'Sahakar Samvad' event in Gujarat's Ahmedabad, he emphasized that his future endeavors will revolve around these themes.

He highlighted the scientific benefits of natural farming, pointing out that crops grown with chemical fertilizers can lead to various health issues, including hypertension, diabetes, thyroid problems, and even cancer.

Health Implications of Chemical Farming

Shah warned that wheat cultivated with fertilizers could be a contributing factor to serious health conditions. He advocated for a diet free from chemicals and fertilizers, suggesting that such a lifestyle could eliminate the need for medication. Additionally, he noted that natural farming could enhance crop yields, citing a personal experience where his harvest increased by 50% after adopting this method.

Natural farming is described as an agricultural practice that adheres to nature's principles without the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. It focuses on improving soil fertility and environmental health.

New Initiatives in Cooperative Farming

According to a release from the Press Information Bureau (PIB), while addressing the 'Sahakar Samvad', Shah announced the foundation stone of a cooperative university in Anand district, Gujarat. This institution will be named after Tribhuvandas Patel, recognized as the father of the cooperative movement in India.
