ਹਾਏ ਨੀ! ਇਹ ਪੱਥਰ ਹੋਈਆਂ ਜੀਭਾਂ,
ਹਾਏ ਨੀ! ਦਿਲ ਭਰਿਆ ਪਲ ਪਲ ਫਿਸੇ।
ਹਾਏ ਨੀ! ਇਹ ਡਾਢੇ ਪੈਂਡੇ ਲੰਮੇ,
ਹਾਏ ਨੀ! ਨਿਰੀਆਂ ਸੂਲਾਂ ਗਿੱਟੇ ਗਿੱਟੇ। pic.twitter.com/gnIrXjM6RX

In another tweet, Dosanjh replied to a Twitter user who was asking him to explain how the ordinances were against the farmers.

In his reply, Dosanjh said that the new ordinances didn’t allow farmers to decide the rate for their produce; there was no minimum support price decided and farmers didn’t have the storage to store the produce, so it didn’t matter how much limit they had.

1. Farmers can’t decide THE RATE

2. There is No Minimum Support Price decided

3. Farmers don’t have storage to store the crops so it doesn’t matter on how much limit they have..

We Expect FARMERS to Feed the Nation But they can’t decide on the Rate 😊 Shaabaash .. 👏🏼 https://t.co/48fFshJbSJ
