Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Friday said India is a rising star in the global economy primarily due to agriculture and agri-based industry, and stressed that the country's rise is "unstoppable".

Addressing the 61st convocation of Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI), Mr. Dhankhar said: "In September 2022, India became the 5th largest economy in the world. It has not come easily. It has been a cesarean." Indeed, it is a milestone achievement and the agriculture sector had a significant contribution in India's global rise, he said.
