Chandigarh: Congress on Wednesday accused BJP failed to double the income of farmers and accused the “anti-farmer” policy of the center has encouraged the agricultural community into an acute crisis.
He claimed that farmers’ income never doubled but their misery was multiplied by 100 times.
At a joint press conference, the head of the Randeep Surjewala Party spokesman and the head of the Punjab Unit Navjot Singh Sidhu said that BJP had failed to double the income of farmers and had burden them with additional taxes in agricultural inputs and considering agricultural law due to agricultural law.
Sidhu connects the problem of farmers with his punjab model, saying it imagines giving MSP on pulses, vegetable oils and corn plants.
He added that the Congress was fighting for the election to increase the stock of farmers in the state.
“Already six years since Narendra Modi promised the farmers, in a meeting generally at Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, on February 28, 2016, that he would double the income of farmers in 2022.
This is 2022 now; income does not double, the pain must increase several times, “said Surjewala.
Congress also released a booklet on the issue and challenges of the agricultural community, titled ‘Aamdani Na Hui Doguni, Dard Sau Guna “(income has not multiplied but pain has increased a hundred times).
Sidhu shows that there is a dependence on rice.” The water table decreases, and Farmers do not meet needs.
In politics who are muda and focus on free, we forget the real problem.
The Punjab model will provide incentives to diversify because we need a new ‘2.0’ agricultural revolution that is supported by good policies, where farmers and small industries will unite.
“He also promised MSP about Dal, grain oil and corn by the state government if the Congress was elected.
