Chandigarh, October 4, 2020: Haryana Deputy Chief Minister, Mr. Dushyant Chautala said that the representatives of Opposition are misleading the innocent farmers on the newly passed Agriculture laws, but the farmers of the state are well informed and they are not going to be misled by anyone.
He said that the farmers know that their interests are safe in whose hands. The central and state governments have taken many historic decisions in the interest of farmers and the work to double the farmers’ income is being done earnestly.
Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra Modi has not only taken many revolutionary decisions in the interest of farmers, but has also given a record amount of compensation to the farmers so far.
Speaking to mediapersons in Sirsa today, the Deputy Chief Minister said that for four days, non-MCP paddy variety-1509 is being sold at Rs 2,100 per quintal across the state, while cotton is also selling at a good price. The opposition is indulging in petty politics in this matter. He said that by giving a bonus of Rs 50 per quintal on the upcoming Rabi season wheat crop, it has been made clear that the farmers' crop will be purchased at the Minimum Support Price (MSP).
Replying to a question being asked about the Baroda by-election, Mr. Dushyant Chautala said that the dialogue of the state heads of both the organizations is on and a decision will be taken soon. He said he is always available for farmers. He said that he was from a farming background himself and is ready to answer every question of farmers. He also heard the problems of the people at his residence.
