The Centre should stop issuing notices to farmers, deemed ineligible under the PM-KISAN scheme, to demand the recovery of the money disbursed to them under the flagship scheme, the Congress said on Thursday.
The party said that while the government was “waiving lakhs of crores” worth of loans of its industrialist friends, it is taking back money from “poor annadaatas”.
Addressing a press conference here, Congress spokesperson Akhilesh Pratap Singh said that by declaring the farmers ineligible under the Kisan Samman Nidhi, the Union Government had started the process of taking back the money.
