Rahul Gandhi doing politics in farmers' name: BJP MP
Alleging that Rahul Gandhi doesn't have the ability to understand the problems of farmers, BJP MP Virendra Singh Mast said that the Congress president was just doing politics in their name. "The Congress president is playing politics in the name of farmers' agitation. The country's agriculture cannot be understood by merely reading books," the BJP MP from Bhadohi said last night.
