HYDERABAD: BJP Nizamabad MP Dharmapuri Arvind on Tuesday said chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao does not care about the interests of local turmeric and maize farmers but is shedding crocodile tears for Punjab farmers.
“I have asked the CM to write a letter to the Centre on turmeric farmers’ woes here. He never bothered but is worried about Punjab farmers,” he said at a press conference here. He said Union home minister Amit Shah stopped the import of turmeric and helped export of Telangana’s turmeric produce after they brought the issue to his notice.

Arvind said the new farm laws would ensure bigger profits for farmers and added that farmers in Punjab have been misled. “In the past, they had demanded removal of middlemen and when the Centre took a decision in this regard, they are protesting on the streets,” he said.
