Punjab Newsline, Derabassi, October 22-
The ruling BJP at the center is discriminating against the state of Punjab and is creating barriers in the procurement of paddy to disturb the peace and order of the farmers of the state. Punjab Cabinet Minister Hardeep Singh Mundian said this while talking to media persons after a function at Derabassi today.
Mundian said that the Central Government, which claims to guarantee the Minimum Support Price to the farmers, is now deliberately not lifting the paddy stock on time due to which the farmers are suffering. He said that the Punjab Government has written multiple letters to the Government of India and Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann himself met the Union Minister, but despite this, the Central Government is not emptying the godowns of Punjab just due to its low level politics.
 The Minister said that the Prime Minister, who is talking about farmers, is sitting silently. He further said that the public will now respond to the atrocities being committed against the state of Punjab, which fills the country’s food reserves.
