“Previous governments could not implement the law due to pressure and influence”
Speaking on the program, he said that there was a time when we lacked wheat, paddy, oilseeds. The population of the country was increasing, but we were struggling with scarcity. The government, farmer organizations and scientists of that time tried to increase production in the country. Now we are in a surplus position in production.
On the previous government and opposition leaders, Narendra Singh Tomar said, “The sad thing is that during the UPA, Manmohan Singh ji, Sharad Pawar ji also wanted this law (agricultural law) to be made, but not facing pressure and influence As a result, he could not achieve the fame of making these laws. ” He further said that we are fortunate that today Modi ji is our PM, who works selflessly for the development of the country and the welfare of the people.
