Uttarakhand Police Learn About Millet’s Health Benefits from Dr. Khader Valli

 

Dr. Khader Valli Dudekula, also known as the “Millet Man of India,” spoke to the Uttarakhand Police on Sunday at the Intelligence Headquarters. During his talk, he shared his knowledge and research about millets and encouraged everyone to include them in their daily diet.

AP Anshuman, Additional Director General of Police (ADGP) for Administration, Intelligence, and Security, welcomed Dr. Khader Valli with flowers and praised his efforts to promote millet consumption. He said, “Dr. Valli’s work is helping not only our country but also people around the world. Our ancestors lived long and healthy lives by eating nutritious millets provided by nature. But today, many people eat too much rice, wheat, fast food, and processed foods. This has changed our lifestyle and led to health problems like diabetes, high blood pressure, and other diseases, making people more dependent on hospitals.”

He also said that bringing millets back into our diets could improve health, protect our traditional food culture, and help build a healthier future. “Let’s all promise to start eating millets from today,” he urged.

ADGP V. Murugesan honored Dr. Khader Valli with a memento to thank him for his valuable work. At the end of the event, all the police officers and staff took a pledge to add millets to their diet and to spread awareness about their benefits.

Many important guests attended the event, including Bhupinder Kaur Aulakh, Country Head of the World Health Organization; Neeru Garg, IG, PAC; Krishna Kumar VK, IG, Intelligence; Narayan Singh Napalchyal, IG, CID; Rajeev Swaroop, IG, Garhwal Region; Nivedita Kukreti, DIG, Fire/Additional Secretary Home; Manjunath TC, SP, Security; Ajai Singh, SSP, Dehradun; Pradeep Kumar Rai, SP, Intelligence; Kamlesh Upadhyay, SP, Crime & Law and Order, along with other police officers and staff.

During his speech, Dr. Khader Valli talked about how millets are an important part of Indian culture and farming. He explained that millets not only keep us healthy but also help prevent diseases. “If you eat the right food, you won’t need medicine. But if you eat the wrong food, no medicine can help. To stay healthy, include millets in your diet,” he said.

He also shared his research on how millets can help prevent lifestyle diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and obesity, promoting a healthier way of living.
