New laws to benefit farmers: Dhankar

rnal, October 18

BJP state president and former Agriculture Minister OP Dhankar on Sunday referred to the three new agri-related laws as “economic freedom for the farmers”.

He said that these three laws would prove beneficial to the farming community.

“The laws will ensure the economic freedom of farmers. No farmers’ unit has been able to find out any flaw in these laws,” he said after a programme at Dr Mangal Sen Auditorium to mark the birth anniversary of Maharishi Valmiki here.

The state president told mediapersons that the market committees would continue to function and the farmers would get MSP. He said that the government has been purchasing the produce of the farmers at MSP and farmers should not be afraid of these laws.

About the Baroda byelections, he said that all the candidates have filed their nominations and they have started campaigning. “Earlier, the seat was with the Congress, but this time, the BJP-JJP candidate will secure victory from the seat,” he said. — TNS
