Raipur: The Finance Minister has slashed the budgetary provision made for farmer-oriented schemes in the general budget compared to last year, the Congress party said on Tuesday while issuing a press statement.
In addition, the cess on petrol and diesel will push up inflation in essential commodities, said Chandrashekhar Shukla, Chhattisgarh Kisan Congress President and financial expert Ramesh Warlyani at a joint press conference held at state Congress headquarters Rajiv Bhavan, Raipur.
On Minimum Support Price (MSP), the labour cost of the farmers has been separated from it. There is no discussion on MSP on other crops, they said.
