Union Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare, Parshottam Rupala
Union Minister of State for Agriculture Parshottam Rupala on Monday said most farmers in the country are in favour of the Centre’s new farm laws, and there is no need to bring the MSP under purview of law as demanded by the protesting farmers.
The BJP leader also urged the farmers, who are protesting at various Delhi borders since November 26, to return to the discussion table and find an amicable solution to the deadlock.
“The Minimum Support Price (MSP) is part of the government’s mechanism (to safeguard farmers from fall in agri produce prices) and it will remain in force in future too,” Rupala told reporters at the Gujarat BJP headquarters.
