In a press conference Organized By Diary Times in Shimla today, he alleged that the state government has failed to resolve the dispute between farmers and the government regarding the purchase of apples are still closed but the government is not coming out of the secretariat.
Apple season has started and in Apple season, the gardeners are facing a lot of problems in the season of sev, no provision has been made for universal carton.
Earlier, there is no provision of space in the mandis and if all the boxes are to be weighed in the mandis, then the space should also be big for that and for that you had to make provision for everything.
You have not developed such a mechanism.
No one has gone to explain to the gardeners that in this way you brought apples to the market, it is not right to impose something and implement something at once.
I request the government not to exploit the gardeners. It was the gardeners and the farmers who brought the government to power. Sand was also promised, that too. None of your 10 guarantees was fulfilled.
