Need a national conversation on rural distress: Varun Gandhi
BJP MP Varun Gandhi has said that the country needs a national conversation on rural distress to mitigate farmers' plight. "Greater subsidies could be extended on the purchase of agricultural equipment, fertilizers and pesticides," he added. He said medical insurance coverage could be expanded through the Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY) to address the agrarian crisis in the country.
