AAP playing politics with farmers, failing to protect their interests: Chugh

STATE TIMES NEWS

CHANDIGARH: BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh on Friday strongly condemned the Aam Admi Party (AAP) government in Punjab for failing to address the grievances of farmers.
In a statement, Chugh said it is so unfortunate that the AAP used farmers as its vote bank, making tall promises to improve their plight. But now when they are in crisis and have been demanding due hike in sugarcane prices the Bhagwant Mann government has turned its back on them, he added. Chugh recalled how the Modi government at the Centre has been constantly raising MSP on all crops to help farmers improve their income but the AAP government in Punjab has miserably failed to help them. He asked the AAP government to stop playing politics with farmers, who constitute backbone of the society.
