In a letter to the Prime Minister, Captain Amarinder underscored the importance of the dairy sector in the states&#8217;s and the Nation\u2019s, overall economic prosperity. \u201cNegotiations for entering into Free Trade Agreement with participating countries may lead to grant of permission to import dairy products under HSN Code 0401 to 0406 under RCEP from countries like New Zealand and Australia,\u201d he pointed out, adding that this would be detrimental to the farmers, especially the landless, marginal and small farmers traditionally involved in allied farming activity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Noting that successive initiatives undertaken by the Union and State Governments since the launch of Operation Flood had resulted in exponential spurt in the sector, the Chief Minister pointed out that currently, more than 80 Million Indian rural households in the country were actively involved in dairying.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The sector, he said, had immense significance for Punjab\u2019s economic growth, besides contributing to the nutritional component value for the masses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Writes to Modi to keep out of Free Trade Agreement in farmers\u2019 interest &nbsp;Chandigarh, Sept. 27 (Punjab Post Bureau) &#8211;
