Pawar issue: I did no wrong by raising farmers issue, says Satyavrat

Even after being snubbed by AICC for his criticism of Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar, senior Congress leader Satyavrat Chaturvedi today said that he had "not done anything wrong" while raising the issue of farmers.

"I know, I have not done anything wrong. I was raising the issue of farmers. I am a member of the CWC and I know my limits," Chaturvedi told reporters here.

Chaturvedi had raised a controversy by attacking Pawar accusing him of misrepresenting facts on availability of sugar.

"As far as the Agriculture Ministry is concerned, where are the stocks of sugar which the ministry had claimed, it had earlier," he reiterated.

 

"If the stocks are there they should release it to bring the crisis caused by the shortage of sugar under control," Chaturvedi said.
