Priyanka Slams UP Government Over Farm Suicides

Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Saturday hit out at the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh over issues being faced by farmers and questioned the efficacy of farm and loan waiver schemes.

She cited a media report which said that five farmers have committed suicide in as many days in Bundelkhand’s Banda. “Farmers grow crop, don’t get the price for it. Famine occurs, compensation is not given,” Priyanka Gandhi said in a tweet in Hindi.
