NEW DELHI, July 25 (TIWN): Congress MP Praniti Shinde in the parliament said, “Farmers are given financial help annually in the Prime Minister Kisan Samman Scheme, but farmers pay GST on fertilizer to the government”.

“That means Modi government gives 6 thousand to a farmer, but collects 18 thousand rupees,” she said.

“When there was UPA government, GST on fertilizer was removed. I demand this scheme should increase financial help. More than 50 thousand farmers in my area are deprived of this scheme. When they go to the ministry and ask, they are told to go to Delhi. Along with this, the aid amount of Prime Minister's Housing Scheme should be increased,” she added.
