Ahmedabad: In Gujarat, the Congress has played a big bet ahead of the elections. Congress has made a big announcement about farmers. On Friday, state Congress president Jagdish Thakor and former Union minister Bharatsinh Solanki said that if we win the assembly elections in Gujarat and form the government, we will first decide on the welfare of farmers and loans up to Rs 3 lakh of farmers of the state will be waived.

Congress leaders said that the decision to loan up to Rs 3 lakh to farmers will be taken in the first cabinet meeting itself. He said that along with this, GST is levied on the essential things that are there for the farmers, including fertilizer, seeds etc. It will be planned to reduce or remove it.
