Budget 2024: Rakesh Tikait Slams the Budget, says 'Farmers Left in the Lurch, Big Companies Benefit!

Following the presentation of Budget 2024, prominent farmer leader Rakesh Tikait criticised the government's proposals, stating that while the budget might appear favourable on paper, it fails to address the real needs of farmers.

Tikait argued that the primary beneficiaries would be companies involved in teaching organic farming, rather than the farmers themselves.

He emphasised that the government should focus on paying fair crop prices, providing free electricity, offering affordable fertilisers, and reducing GST on farming equipment to genuinely support the agricultural community.
