Nayab Govt Cheats Farmers on Day One: AAP Alleges MSP Failure, Procurement Chaos
•AAP's Anurag Dhanda slams Nayab Singh government over 'failed' mustard procurement, alleging farmers were cheated on the first day.
•Government procurement stalled in over 90% of mandis, with less than 5% of 1.2 lakh quintals of mustard purchased despite a 13 lakh metric ton target.
•E-procurement portal collapsed due to server crashes and data verification errors, preventing farmers from getting gate passes; over 5000 sent back.
•Mandis lack basic facilities like gunny cloth, weighing scales, labor, drinking water, and toilets, forcing farmers to suffer in the sun.
•Farmers forced to sell mustard to private traders for Rs 5300-5800, well below the Rs 6200 MSP, indicating a 'show' of MSP and promotion of private procurement.
