Bhopal. Even though there is less than a year left for the assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh, the phase of political maneuvering has already started. On the statement of loan waiver, even the political dispute has intensified. In the assembly elections held in the year 2018 in the state, the Congress (Congress) got power and the main reason for this was the announcement of loan waiver for the farmers. Kamal Nath’s government lasted for about 15 months and the government fell due to the rebellion of the MLAs under the leadership of Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia. Now that the elections are round the corner, Congress state president and former Chief Minister Kamal Nath has once again made a bet of loan waiver for farmers.
Former Chief Minister Kamal Nath has said that the farmer loan waiver scheme, which was stopped by the Shivraj government, will be started again as soon as the Congress government is formed in Madhya Pradesh. The politics in the state has heated up after the former Chief Minister’s loan waiver statement and Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan has reminded Rahul Gandhi’s statement in which Gandhi will waive the loan within 10 days. In his absence, it was announced to change the Chief Minister. Chief Minister Chouhan says that he had promised to waive the loan in 10 days, when he was given a chance for a year and a half, he could not do it, now he has come again to say that he will do it. The wooden pot is raised once, not again and again, the public knows their truth. He further said in a poetic way, don’t talk here and there, tell why the loan was not waived in 10 days.
In the last elections in the state, the Congress had promised to waive the loan of farmers up to two lakhs, but the government fell within 15 months. After that the figures regarding loan waiver have come out, it has been said that loans of 27.5 lakh farmers were waived off. This figure was presented in the House by Kamal Patel, the Agriculture Minister of the state government. Now once again both the political parties are face to face on farmer loan waiver and have also started trying to reach out to the farmers. The BJP has even started the Kisan Gaurav Yatra, while the Congress is preparing to go from village to village.
