Congress leader Rahul Gandhi
Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi today spoke in the Lok Sabha on the issue of farmers' crisis.
Here are the highlights of his speech:
- Farmers are crying in mandis, they are in pain
- And your minister says farmers committing suicide are cowards, criminals
- Your government did not help, farmers suffered
- You stopped their bonus, farmers suffered
- They can't sell their produce
- Your government says "Make in India" hona chahiye... hamaari sarkaar, aapki sarkar, but not farmers' sarkar
- Indian PM is in the country for some time. He should visit Punjab too and listen to farmers
- Does farmer not do "Make in India?"
- If farmer suffering losses is compensated, then it is your gain, not ours
- You should procure grain ASAP from mandis
