Fruit, vegetable, milk should get 1.5 times profit value. The ten-day protest is likely to hit the supply and in turn, result in rising in food and milk prices.
The protest which is being carried out by Rashtriya Kisan Mazdoor Mahasangh has the support of 135 groups. So far farmers in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Punjab have extended their support. Even Chhattisgarh farmers are likely to join the protest.
The Madhya Pradesh farmers have expressed their anger against both Modi and Shivraj government.
As per the farmers, no food shall be supplied to the cities, but if someone wants to come and purchase food can do so. “Our demands are no other than promises made by BJP in their manifesto,” said Shiv Kumar Sharma, RKMM.
