Lagatar24 Desk : With the rise in the prices of petrol, diesel, and LPG Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Thursday urged the government to increase the procurement price of sugarcane for farmers as there has been no increase in it within the last three years.
The Congress general secretary said the BJP government is increasing the price of LPG every month and petrol and diesel prices have been increased 60 to 70 times in three to four months.
But the sugarcane price for farmers has not increased for three years?” Priyanka Gandhi tweeted in Hindi with the hashtags ‘Mehnga Din (expensive days)’ and’ ganne ke daam badhao (increase prices of sugarcane)’.
Priyanka had also raised the issue last week, pointing out that despite a regular increase in prices of diesel and electricity for farmers, the price of sugarcane has not seen any rise for the last three years.
