Modi govt is deaf towards farmers problems: Siddaramaiah
Bengaluru: Reacting to the Union Budget presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitaraman, former chief minister Siddaramaiah said that the Union Budget -2019-20 was against the farmers, youth and rural India. The farmers were suffering due to lack of sufficient rains and good price for their agricultural produces, while youth were suffering due to unemployment. But the Narendra Modi government has completely neglected those two problems, he said.
The farmers across the country have been demanding loan waiver. Previous Congress government and present coalition government in the state have waived of the farm loans. But the Narendra Modi government was deaf to hear the voice of farmers, he said.
Irrigation, horticulture, Cooperative sector, unemployment were neglected. As the government has neglected the agriculture which generating more job opportunities, the unemployment problem will aggravate more and it will lead to migration, he analysed.
The Union Finance Minister should understand that she couldn't create job opportunities just by referring the Basavanna's vachana 'Kayakave Kailasa'. The election could be won by strategies and mantra, but it could not create jobs in the country, he said.
Though the oil price was decreasing in international market, the Modi government has hiked the price of petroleum products and this decision would naturally hike the prices of other essential commodities and common man would be the sufferer, he said.
