Chandigarh, Oct 28 (UNI) The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Wednesday asked the Punjab government to follow the Kerala pattern and declare minimum support price (MSP) for fresh farm fruits and vegetables to give a boost to agriculture besides ensuring government purchase of crops for which MSP had already been
declared by the centre.
In a statement here, former minister Bikram Singh Majithia said the Congress government in Punjab should launch this scheme on the State’s foundation day on November 1 in the same manner in which the Kerala government had done recently.
