Priyanka Gandhi lying, MP farmers being given Rs 12,000: CM Chouhan

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Saturday targeted Congress general secretary Priyanka Vadra Gandhi over the latter's claim that farmers were unable to make Rs 27 per day, saying growers in the state are being given Rs 12,000. I would like to say that Rs 6,000 from the prime minister and Rs 6,000 from me are being directly deposited into the bank accounts of farmers. Don't tell such a lie that it can't be stomached, he told reporters here. The CM, however, did not specify whether the money was being deposited into the farmers' accounts monthly or yearly. Farmers got loans at 18 per cent (interest) during the Congress rule. We are giving them loans at zero per cent. She said that the daily income of a farmer was just Rs 27 a day, he said.
