    Varanasi Day 2: Modi lays foundation for toilet, addresses farmers

    On his second day in Varanasi, PM Narendra Modi laid the foundation for toilets as part of the Swachhata Mission at Shahanshahpur before addressing farmers at a Pashudhan Arogya Mela. Addressing farmers on the occasion, he said, "'Swachhata' has to become 'swabhav' and it is our collective responsibility to keep our nation clean." "Cleanliness is a way to serve the poor of India."

    Every person will get a home by 2022, Modi says

    Modi reiterated his calls for a new India by 2022. He said every Indian, whether in rural or urban areas, will get a home by 2022. Animal welfare and innovation in agriculture would be a major part of the plan, he said. For farmers, the government has come up with soil health cards to help them obtain higher yields at lower cost, he said.
