No corporate can snatch away any farmer’s land as long as Narendra Modi is Prime Minister of the country, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Friday and asserted that the supply of MSP will continue and mandis won’t be pack up .
Addressing a gathering in Kishangarh village within the capital , Shah said if farmer organisations felt that any provision of the three new farm laws is against their interests, the Modi government was able to discuss and consider an equivalent with an open mind.
Shah blamed the Opposition, including Congress, for spreading lies about the minimum support price (MSP) and other provisions of the farm laws.
“The Opposition is speaking brazen lies. I again reiterate that the MSP will continue and therefore the mandis won’t be closed. Farmers’ welfare is that the top-most priority of the Modi government,” Shah asserted.
The years-old demand of 1 and half times MSP on crops has been implemented by the Modi government during 2014-19, he said.
Shah attended Kisan Samman Nidhi event and also listened to Prime Minister Modi’s video interaction with farmers from several states, along side other BJP leaders at a Gaushala in Kishangarh village.
