भारतीय खाद्यय निगम के पुन्ननवीकरण के अंतर्गत हर गांव में खाद्द्य पदार्थो को सुरक्षित के लिए अच्छी गोदाम व्यवस्था का निर्माण एवं मजदूरो की उपलब्धि आवशयक् है । खाद्य पदार्थो को ख़राब होने से बचाने के लिए दवाइया की उपलबध्ता के लिए एक स्टोर एवं कम किराये में गोदामो को किसानो को देने से किसान को अपनी फसल को सुरक्षित रखने में सुविधा होगी व पूंजी वादी जमाखोरों की संख्या में कमी आएगी और किसान को अपनी फसल का उचित मूल्य प्राप्त होगा ।

Sir, in the name of traditions yet obsolete and irrevelant systems of paternal society, the rights of women have been suppressed. Inspite of all the talks of women liberty and equality, women in our country are technically regarded as second class citizens. A daughter after getting married is immediately deprived of many rights and privileges. In our state of Sikkim, her domicile certificate becomes invalid. She has to keep producing unmarried certificate to avail any priveleges. Please abolish.

NAMASTHE WE SHOULD START SCHOOLS WHICH WILL TEACH EDUCATION TO CHILDREN ALONG WITH DESH BHAKTHI AND NOT RELEGIOUS AND GODLY THINGS { THESE RELIGIOUS AND GODLY THINGS SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE BY PARENTS AND THEY HAVE RIGHT TO DECIDE WHICH RELIGION SHOULD THEIR CHILDREN FOLLOW AND I THINK THE SCHOOLS DONT HAVE RIGHT TO DO SO },. I DO WISH THAT THE SCHOOLS SHOULD NAMED AS ''THE PATRIOT SCHOOL"' AND SHOULD BE ASSOCIATED WITH OUR MILITARY SO THE CHILDREN WILL BE TAUGHT DESH BHAKTHI FROM THEIR CHILDHOOD

Sir-It’s a shame to see that there is no national emergency service for police, ambulance and fire brigade. It’s a real shame to see people lying in the road after an accident for hours or at home after heart attack or accident. Why can’t we have a single system of calling help by the citizen in every corner of the country. Using IT and GPS system there should be a target time of 5 minutes to reach the spot. Why there are so many VIP choppers but not a single air ambulance for common people.

Sir-Indian road is the biggest killer in India.Can we build a national consensus and pass strict law on road building standards, driving standards. Being so low in the number of cars per 1000population, the rate of death is highest.This is because lack of training, driving standard strict testing. Knowing to turn the wheel is not driving! Anybody can get license by corrupt means. Roads are also not build and maintain properly. Some people think kerbs are meant for hawking or dumping materials.

Dear PM, When you are contemplating idea about reducing out dated & hindering laws, I would like to request you to have a look at misuse of matrimonial laws like 498A, PWDVA, CrPc 125 and other women oriented laws. PROBABLY made with good intentions, our sluggish judiciary & poor police investigations have caused millions of men and women becoming victim of such poorly drafted and poorly implemented laws. Isn't it shame on us? Please expedite to restore harmony in basic social unit - FAMILY

Special transportation vehicles should be designed made of as per requirements of food grains like thick plastic so that corrosion can be avoided which also harm large amount of foodgrain Proper packaging is needed. Machine based packaging should be implemented. 3)insects also damage foodgrain so need based chemicals can be used

FCI was established as a need of the time in 1960-1970. but for 21 century there has to be new institution with new name (Indian Food Coorporation) & new act like FSSAI & new code of conduct. it should be more professional & more accountable. Three things can be done 1) 'zero food wastage' should be a national movement. 2) Appoint 'Food Technologists" having through knowledge of food safety & security answerable to FSSAI & FCI both. 3) Make it completely online & transparent.

Sir, we should dry lands like " Churu " in Rajasthan as FCI hubs , make them connected with main lands . Use Silo , which are advanced way of using less land and cheaper investment for storing grains , give the operations and maintenance part to private organisations , this will provide benefit in term of low investment and will create job opportunities as well. I can describe in detail if you allow me for presentation on it , mohit baid - baid.mech@gmail.com 9903900732
