Dairy Farmer Buys Helicopter Worth Rs 30 Cr for his Business

Maharashtra: While the farmers at the Delhi-Singhu borders are protesting against the three controversial farm laws, a farmer and entrepreneur from Maharashtra's Bhiwandi have bought a helicopter to help him travel across the country for his dairy business.

According to reports, the farmers identified as Janardhan Bhoir who recently ventured into the dairy business had to buy the helicopter as his venture demanded him to travel to different places in the country.

Hence making his business trips convenient and at the same saving time, he purchased a helicopter worth Rs 30 crore.

Reportedly, Janardhan said that he has to travel to Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan and Gujarat often for his dairy business.

Since many places don't have the facility of airports, he used to travel for long hours then he decided to purchase a helicopter at a friend's suggestion.

"I have to frequently travel for my business, that's the reason I bought a helicopter. I need it often to look after my dairy business and farming," Janardhan told local reporters.

Meanwhile, the said helicopter was sent to his village for a trial run and this is when Janardan offered village panchayat members to take a ride in his helicopter.

Notably, Janardan has made arrangements to build a helipad with a protective wall on a 2.5-acre land. There will also be a garage for the helicopter, a pilot room and a technician room.

Janardhan said that the helicopter will be delivered on March 15.

Janardhan reportedly has property worth Rs 100 crore. Along with the business of farming and dairy, Janardhan has also a real-estate business.

Last year, an elderly couple from Kerala bypassing all the hiccups generally faced during the road, train or airline travel during the Coronavirus pandemic took a helicopter ride to Bengaluru and back after attending their grandson's wedding.

"It was like flying from my backyard to Bengaluru and back again. I don't think this will happen even if I take a flight from an airport in Kochi or Coimbatore," the grandad told national media.
