Ludhiana , 6 June 2014-(Haryana Scree Bureau):
All India Secretary BJP Kisan Morcha and Prabhari Himachal Pradesh Advocate, Sukhminderpal Singh Grewal said that the BJP Kisan Morcha will convene a meeting of the National Executive body meeting on June 7 and June 8 at Bahadurgarh in Haryana to discuss Indian farmers issues. Talking with the media persons at mandi Khassi Kalan, Ludhiana Grewal said after fighting for the rights of farmers for 10 years, the time to draft policies on these issues had come. He said the forthcoming kharif season crop will give farmers 50 per cent profit and work has begun to revise minimum support price (MSP) in sync with the input cost and the calculations of Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices will also be based on the same. Grewal said the BJP-led government at the Centre was initiating steps to fulfill its commitment to the farmers and the Swaminathan Commission recommendation of 50 per cent profit on the price of crop to the farmers was being taken up on priority. Grewal said Union Agriculture Minister, Sh. Radhamohan Singh Des will interact with 3,000 state farmers in Bahadurgarh and he will also address farmers drawn from all over the country during the meeting of Kisan Morcha. Grewal also demanded security for crops that neither have a fixed market value nor are procured by government agencies. He said a policy had to be formulated rather than leaving farmers to the mercy of the market.
