Modi was addressing the second edition of World Food India at Bharat Mandapam in the national capital. The three-day event will conclude on November 5.

"In the last nine years, FDI worth ₹50,000 crore has come into the food processing sector. It is a result of the government's pro-industry and pro-farmer policies," Modi said.
