New Delhi:
Asking his officials not to adopt lacklustre approach into interest of farmers, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said he will not tolerate any exploitation of farmers, and the officials will not be spared for ignorance in the matter.
While reviewing the wheat purchase, the chief minister directed the officials to ensure that the farmers’ produce is sold at the support price. The chief minister further asked the officials to complete the process of purchasing of wheat from farmers by June 15.
He was also of the view that the list of farmers be made available to public representatives, so that their exact status and condition could be ascertained.
Adityanath issued orders for construction of more check dams for water conservation in Bundelkhand—a drought-prone region—on a priority basis.
The chief minister also mentioned that an expressway will be constructed in Bundelkhand which will integrate the entire region with the growth path.
