Dhyan Singh Bhagat
Kapurthala, December 5
MLA Rana Gurjit Singh, while expressing concern over the delay in the payment of paddy, has asked the farmers to resolve all the issues causing difficulties in purchasing the paddy crop. The MLA said that farmers work hard for the production of crops. It is very painful for the farmers when problems arise while selling the crop. Rana Gurjit Singh suggested that farmers have very little time between paddy harvesting and wheat cultivation. Therefore, farmers’ saffron crops should be bought immediately upon reaching the markets. He congratulated the farmers and state agencies for the drastic reduction in crop fire incidents in the fields this season. They expressed concern over the decline in the total arrival of paddy in the markets. Rana Gurjit said that in the future all the issues of sheller owners should be resolved first so that there is no problem during the season.
