Congress remembers the prices of vegetables when elections come
Not only Madhya Pradesh but the politics of the country has an old history. When the prices of daily essential commodities increase wildly, it affects the politics of power. According to Kamal Patel, Agriculture Minister of Madhya Pradesh Government, the state is agriculture dominated. In such a situation, farmers should get fair price for their crops. Sometimes, due to lack of coordination between the arrival and demand, the prices of vegetables increase.
This has a direct effect on the economic condition of the farmers, their economic condition improves when the farmers get good prices, but the Congress has problems in everything. During the tenure of Congress, people have been seen throwing vegetables on the streets.
