When will PM Modi release PM KISAN funds and what is the Opposition's response to this

PM Modi will release PM KISAN funds on November 15 and the Opposition has criticized this move.
  • PM Modi is set to release PM KISAN funds on November 15, which is a financial assistance scheme aimed at providing direct income support to farmers in India.
  • The opposition has criticized this move on several grounds. They argue that the release of funds just before the upcoming state assembly elections, especially in states like Uttar Pradesh and Punjab, is politically motivated to gain electoral advantage.
  • Opposition parties have accused the government of using the funds as a tool to woo farmers for political gains, disregarding the genuine issues faced by the agricultural community.
  • They argue that the timing of the fund release raises questions about the government's intention and whether it is genuinely focused on addressing farmers' concerns or simply trying to win votes.
  • Some opposition leaders have accused the government of exploiting farmers' distress for political mileage and have demanded more comprehensive policies to address the agricultural crisis.
Overall, the opposition's response to the release of PM KISAN funds by PM Modi has been critical, alleging political motivations and calling for more substantial efforts to address the challenges faced by farmers.
