PM Oli calls for more millet to be produced
In addition to being our native grain, millet is a staple diet that is high in nutrients, according to Prime Minister and CPN (UML) Chairperson KP Sharma Oli. Prime Minister Oli sent out a greeting on National Millet Day, encouraging everyone to produce more millet and eat its recipes. Let’s enhance millet production and eat its meals, he writes on a social networking site. Wishing everyone a happy National Millet Day!
According to PM, because millet is a crop high in fiber, eating it can help regulate blood glucose levels and maintain heart health. In an effort to promote this nutrient-dense meal, the government has chosen to make Saun 16 the National Millet Day starting this year.
