SKM to campaign against BJP for Gujarat polls

“On the Constitution Day (November 26), farmers will march towards the Raj Bhawan in Gandhi Nagar and a memorandum will be submitted to the President through the governor, seeking legally guaranteed MSP for all crops,” said Mollah. 

 As per the SKM, memorandums will be submitted to the President through governors across India, seeking a legal guarantee for the MSP on November 26. 

The Modi government constituted a committee on MSP in January this year but the SKM has rejected the committee.

“The committee included five government’s loyalists (representatives of other farmer organisations) who openly advocated all three anti-farmer laws,” it said.  

The SKM will also press for a comprehensive crop insurance scheme, complete loan waiver, and pension of Rs 5,000 per month to all marginal, small, and medium-scale farmers during the campaign.
