Political parties in Punjab including Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and the Congress on Tuesday, termed the Central government’s committee on Minimum Support Price (MSP) an ‘eyewash’ and demanded the government to recast it.
Senior SAD leader Daljit Singh Cheema said the Centre should recast the committee, urging the government to include all stakeholders, including representatives from Punjab as well as agri-experts.
Mr. Cheema asserted that the Central government should have avoided nominating members in the committee, who were the architects of the now repealed controversial farm laws.
