Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Wednesday hit out at Congress, saying that the grand old party has consistently opposed the interests of farmers. In an exclusive interview with India TV, the 65-year-old leader stressed that Congress has always been anti-farmer, while Prime Minister Narendra Modi is pro-farmer. Chouhan also emphasised that farmers received a perfect gift ahead of Diwali, noting that they are now earning a profit of 50 per cent over their costs.
