Rather than Modi Government creating the awareness among farmers for their new Farm laws . I think first of all the Modi government should educate themselves for their own farm laws. As most of these laws were directed by their oligarch friends Adani and Armani. Modi government is dancing to the music of hiois fraudster friends. Modi govt is such and idiotic people in their cabinet and has no clue what they are doing.

It is still time they learnRead allPost comment
