The President of Samajwadi Party in India, Akhilesh Yadav, has said that nearly 0.1 million farmers have committed suicide since the Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in the country.
Akhilesh Yadav in a statement said the farmers’ demand for minimum support price (MSP) is absolutely legitimate so it should be implemented and there should be a legal guarantee because agriculture is the backbone of the economy.
He said if farmers and agriculture in the country will be destroyed, it will also have a bad effect on the economy. He further said the upcoming general elections are very important. “If we want to save our Constitution and democracy then BJP has to be wiped out,” he added.—INP
