Madhya Pradesh Election-2023: Will Kamal Nath's Kisan Nyay Yojana Prove To Be A Game Changer?

Bhopal: Before the MP Assembly Election-2023, Kamal Nath has made a big move to woo the farmers. Kamal Nath is looking confident that his government is coming in MP. After this he has made a big announcement. 

On Wednesday, he made five big announcements regarding the farmers, which could prove to be a game changer. Kamal Nath has said that he will bring Kisan Nyay Yojana in Madhya Pradesh. Along with this, farmers will be provided with continuous electricity for 12 hours for farming.

Talking to the media in Bhopal, Kamal Nath said that farmers are getting weak in the state. He said that we have done many things in the agriculture sector. We had waived the loans of 27 lakh farmers during our tenure. 

Nath said the BJP claims that they have waived the interest. But the loan is still there. The government is increasing the loan burden of the farmers. Farmers in MP are wandering for seeds and fertilizers. Even if they get it, they are of inferior quality. If the farmer does any agitation, a case is registered against him.

Kamal Nath said that we have decided that we will bring Kisan Nyay Yojana in the state. Through Kisan Nyay Yojana, we will reduce their input cost. Also farmers will earn more profit. These are 5 promises made under the scheme:

Loan will be waived

Nath said that we will waive off the loans of the farmers in Madhya Pradesh as before. We had waived the loans of 27 lakh farmers in our first term. The BJP government has stopped it.

Free electricity

Kamal Nath said that we will give relief to the farmers in electricity as well. Free electricity will be given to the farmers to run the five horse power motors. 

Power bills will be waived

Along with this, the electricity bills of the farmers will be waived. This will greatly benefit 37 lakh farmers of the state. 

Electricity for 12 hours

The farmers of the state will be given uninterrupted electricity for 12 hours for farming. This will not cause any problem to the farmers. With this, farmers will continue to do irrigation work.

Cases filed against farmers to be withdrawn

Kamal Nath said that we will take back the cases registered against the farmers during the agitation. He said that we are doing all this to reduce the cost of farming.
