On March 12, the state government is going to give money to the farmers of Chhattisgarh under the Krishi Unnat Yojana. When asked whether Congress leaders will also get this amount, BJP leader Shivratan Sharma said – Bhupesh Baghel is a farmer, money will also go to his account, money will also go to the accounts of former Home Minister Tamradhwaj Sahu and Deepak Baij. In this, seeing BJP or Congress, money is not being given, the farmer will get the money.
Actually, the BJP government is giving this amount to the farmers because of the increased support price. The BJP government had promised to purchase paddy at the rate of Rs 3100 per quintal. The new government took paddy from farmers at the rate of Rs 2183, now the remaining Rs 917 will be released on March 12.
