Dubbing the NDA government at the Centre as anti-farmer, BJD announced a 10-day protest plan in 12 western and southern districts from January 8. Addressing a news conference here at the party headquarters, BJD general secretary Sanjay Das Burma lashed out at the Centre as Union minister of state for agriculture Gajendra Singh Sekhawat had informed the parliament on December 29 that there is no proposal now to revise the minimum support price (MSP) on paddy. The reply has exposed the anti-farmer attitude of the Centre. We condemn the statement of the Union ministers in the parliament. BJD would stage protest against it in 10 highest rice-producing districts
