BJP Leader Questions Punjab Government on Farmer Loan Relief and OTS ImplementationPreviousNext

Senior BJP leader Sunil Jakhar criticized Punjab's Aam Aadmi Party government, led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, for not fulfilling promises related to agricultural debt relief and the one-time settlement (OTS) scheme for farmers. Jakhar challenged the government to disclose data on farmers benefiting from enhanced Kisan Credit Card limits and questioned the formation and actions of an all-party committee on loan settlements. He highlighted that despite assurances, the latest Assembly session ended without implementing the promised relief measures.
