Bhupinder Hooda slams Haryana govt for delays in grain procurement

In a statement, former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda said about 38 lakh metric tonnes of wheat has arrived in the mandis but only 10 lakh metric tonnes have been lifted so far. “Due to delay in lifting, payment to farmers is also getting delayed. Due to rains and mismanagement, the farmers are suffering huge losses,” he said.
