Book those buying below MSP: Congress

Chandigarh, September 30

Congress MLAs have demanded a legislation to act against those buying grains below the minimum support price (MSP).

Ferozepur (urban) MLA Parminder Singh Pinki and Qadian MLA Fateh Jung Bajwa, in a representation to the Congress president Sonia Gandhi and Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh, have demanded legislation to ensure that anyone buying wheat or paddy below the MSP should be booked under the law.

They said the state was well within its rights to bring the legislation that would ensure justice to the farmers and keep them out of the provisions of the Central agricultural laws. — TNS
