BJP District President Rajesh Dhakad stated that both the Central and State Governments are committed to farmers’ welfare and urged farmers to counter misinformation spread by the opposition.
Under the Bhavantar scheme, if farmers sell their crops below the Minimum Support Price, the state government compensates them for the difference, ensuring they receive full value for their produce.
