A day before Union ministers are scheduled to resume talks with the agitating farm unions, Punjab BJP chief Sunil Jakhar said the Narendra Modi government was fully sensitive to the farmers’ issues.
In a statement, Jakhar said the talks between farmers and the government would definitely lead to an effective solution.
“I am sure demands and issues raised by farmers are of very serious nature and their resolution is necessary through understanding and dialogue,” Jakhar said, adding that only a farmer knows the true essence of issues and challenges of today’s agriculture.
He said for Narendra Modi-led NDA government, farmers were one of the formidable pillars of the national growth trajectory.
