21 Feb 2024 Evaluate

Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge today extended his support for the ongoing farmer's protest over the issue of Minimum Support Price (MSP) and declared that the party stands firmly with them.

Speaking to the reporters in Karnataka, Kharge said, ‘We are supporting them (farmers). We are saying openly that their reasonable demands should be fulfilled. We are going to say this in our election manifesto also that a legal guarantee will be given. All crops cannot be covered but the essential crops should be done (providing MSP)’. He said that the centre should fulfil the reasonable demands of the farmers and provide the MSP on essential crops. Kharge also said that the Congress would even include the legal guarantee on MSP in its manifesto for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Earlier, Former Congress President Rahul Gandhi slammed the Narendra Modi-led central government for not implementing the recommendations of the MS Swaminathan report. Reacting to the farmers' protest, Madhya Pradesh Congress president Jitu Patwari hit out at PM Narendra Modi, saying he had promised to double the minimum support price for farmers during the 2014 elections but did not deliver on it. While, Union Agriculture Minister Arjun Munda said that the centre is open to hold 5th round of talks with the protesting farmers to discuss all the issues raised by the latter. He also urged them to find a solution through 'dialogue'.

Earlier in the day, Punjab Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Samiti general secretary Sarwan Singh Pandher reiterated the demand for legal guarantee of minimum support price (MSP) and assured a peaceful approach going forward. The farmer leader said that as the 'Dilli Chalo' resumed on Wednesday, only the leaders will be marching towards the national capital. After the 4th round of talks ended in a stalemate, the farmers resumed their march on Wednesday morning. On February 19, farmer leaders rejected the Centre's proposal on MSP procurement, saying it was ‘not in favor of farmers.’ After the Centre brought a proposal to buy crops at the MSP, farmers leaders rejected the proposal saying that it had nothing for them.
