Union minister Piyush Goyal presented the election year Interim Budget in parliament today and announced major relief for farmers. The government said it will send Rs. 6,000 to small farmers directly into their bank accounts in a scheme that will be funded 100 per cent by the centre. The programme will cost Rs. 75,000 crore. NDTV talks to farmers in Punjab to find out how this relief given to farmers ahead of Lok Sabha 2019 elections is beneficial to them, or not.
