BJP Government’s Announcement and Swaminathan’s Suggestions

Promise of MSP Guarantee

It is worth mentioning that Rahul Gandhi’s journey was supposed to commence from Ambikapur towards Balrampur district, but it was suddenly postponed. This delay was due to Rahul Gandhi and Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge having to depart for Delhi due to the ongoing farmers’ agitation in the capital.
