Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav today termed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Kisan Kalyan Rally' in Shahjahanpur a joke (uphaas) and wondered when the country's farmers would get the benefits of the recently-announced MSP for crops.
In a statement issued here, Yadav said, "The Kisan Kalyan Rally held in Shahjahanpur was uphaas (joke). The farmers are unable to get their input cost realised. The need of the hour is to tell the farmers when they will get the new MSP for their crops, and through which medium."
