We will raise farmers' issues in the next session of Parliament… Rahul Gandhi from United Kisan Morcha said.
Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi met the representatives of United Kisan Morcha at the Parliament premises on Tuesday. The delegation presented two drafts to Rahul regarding farmers' loan waiver and statutory guarantee for MSP. Following this, Rahul assured the farmers that there is still less time left in this series of meetings. But, he will raise the demands of the farmers in the next session. Congress president Jairam Ramesh said that Rahul Gandhi will raise these two demands of the farmers in the Lok Sabha through a separate member's bill in the next session. Also, in today's meeting, the farmers have requested Rahul Gandhi to form an advisory committee of 56 members from the Congress or India constituency and representatives of agricultural organizations. A long-term program is needed to solve this problem. A legal guarantee of MSP is necessary, but a long-term plan is needed to address farmers' problems and overcome the agrarian crisis in the country, Rahul said. Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday participated in a meeting called on the situation in Bangladesh. During this, he questioned whether Pakistan could have any role behind this development in Bangladesh by promising to help Sheikh Hasina, the former Prime Minister of Bangladesh to do so. Rahul asked about the situation prevailing in Bangladesh for the last few days and the government is monitoring the situation.
