Kamal Nath, while referring to the damage done to the soybean crops in several areas of the state, said in the wake of coronavirus, farmers in the state were already facing hardships due to no sale of their products and not getting adequate price for crops, while this has further brought them in crisis.
"In such difficult circumstances, your government has not provided any relief to the farmers, nor is any such effort from government visible," the former chief minister said. (ANI)
