Haryana Chief Minister, Sh. Nayab Singh Saini on Tuesday held a detailed meeting with leaders of various farmer organisations from Punjab at Sant Kabir Kutir and assured them that concerns related to farmers and the agriculture sector would be addressed on priority once a BJP government is formed in Punjab. The interaction focused extensively on the present challenges being faced by farmers in Punjab, agricultural reforms and measures required to strengthen the farming community economically and socially.
The delegation, comprising representatives of the Doaba Kisan Union, Kisan Bachao Morcha and members of the Kamboj community, placed before the Chief Minister several issues concerning farmers in Punjab and sought effective and long-term solutions.
Responding to their concerns, the Chief Minister said that the Bharatiya Janata Party has always considered farmers’ welfare as central to its governance and policy framework. He said the BJP governments at both the Centre and in Haryana have consistently worked with commitment and sensitivity for the welfare, prosperity and economic upliftment of farmers.
The Chief Minister said that under the BJP-led government in Haryana, farmers are being provided the benefit of crop procurement at Minimum Support Price (MSP), ensuring financial security and protection from market fluctuations. He further said that farmers are also being compensated promptly in cases of natural calamities and crop damage so that they do not face economic distress.
Highlighting Haryana’s farmer-centric initiatives, Sh. Nayab Singh Saini said the state government has implemented several progressive measures aimed at increasing farmers’ income, strengthening the rural economy and making agriculture a more profitable and sustainable occupation. He added that the BJP firmly believes that the prosperity of farmers is directly linked to the prosperity of the nation.
Reaffirming the BJP’s commitment towards the farming community, the Chief Minister assured the delegation that once a BJP government is formed in Punjab, issues concerning farmers and the agriculture sector would be resolved on priority through transparent governance, policy-driven reforms and continuous engagement with stakeholders.
He further said that both the Central and State BJP governments are continuously working to strengthen the agriculture sector, empower farmers and accelerate rural development with a spirit of service and commitment.
