Farmer Protest 2.0: Farmer Leaders Reject Centre’s MSP Proposal
Updated On: 20 February, 2024 10:25 AM IST
After the Centre brought a proposal to purchase crops at Minimum Support Price (MSP), farmers leaders rejected the proposal on February 19, saying that it had nothing for them. Addressing a press conference, farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal said that after the discussion, the forums rejected the proposal. "After the discussion of both forums, it has been decided that if you analyse, there is nothing in the government`s proposal. Our government imports palm oil worth Rs 1.75 crore from outside that also causes illness to the general public. If this money is given to the farmers of the country to grow oil seed crops and MSP is announced, then that money can be used here. This is not in the favour of farmers. We reject it," he said. "If the government is not giving legal guarantee of MSP, it means that the farmers of the country will continue to be looted. This is not acceptable," he added.
