Mamata Banerjee Writes to Agri Minister, Clarifies After Amit Shah s Blocking Central Schemes Accusation
A day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched a scathing attack on the West Bengal government on blocking central government schemes, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in a letter to Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar said that she has already informed the Centre on September 9 regarding implementing the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Sammann Nidhi (PMKSN) and funds routed through the state government.
Banerjee in her letter said, “You may kindly recall my letter dated September 9, 2020 regarding the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi scheme launched by the central government. Decision of the central government on implementation of the scheme in West Bengal and transferring the requisite fund to the State government for onward distribution to the farmers through the state government machinery is still awaited.”
NEW DELHI: Slamming Opposition leaders for their stance against the new farm laws, Union minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi has alleged that “failed political players” who have been rejected repeatedly by the people are acting under their “depression of defeat” and “misleading” the farmers.
The Minority Affairs Minister also lashed out at Opposition leaders Rahul Gandhi and Arvind Kejriwal, alleging that the Congress leader was “posing” as a farmers’ leader despite knowing little about farming, while the Delhi chief minister was “karne mein zero, dharne mein hero (zero in work, but hero in sit-ins)”.
Farmers throughout the country are satisfied that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has worked for their empowerment and interests after coming to power, Naqvi told PTI in an interview.
