Captain Amarinder Singh responds to CM Manohar Khattar's questions

The war of words between Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar and Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh has intensified. The Haryana CM had earlier accused the Punjab government of fueling the ongoing farmers' movement. After that Punjab CM responded that the Haryana government is working with the anti-farmer agenda. This is the reason why farmers protesting peacefully in Karnal were lathi-charged in a barbaric manner.

• Dear @capt_amarinder ji,
  1. Haryana procures 10 crops at MSP – paddy, wheat, mustard, bajra, gram, moong, maize, ground nut, sun flower, cotton and makes the MSP payment directly into the account of the farmer. How many crops does Punjab buy from the farmer at MSP?

The Haryana CM Manohar Lal Khattar has once again escalated the matter and posed eight questions on Twitter tagging the Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Singh. He wrote that Haryana procured 10 crops at MSP and makes the payment directly into the accounts of the farmers. How many crops does Punjab buy from farmers at MSP? He also cornered the Punjab government on Sugarcane prices and wrote, Haryana has been paying the highest MSP in the country for sugarcane to its farmers for the last 7 years. Why has Punjab felt the need to match Haryana only after agitation by farmers?

Meanwhile, Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh during a press conference in Chandigarh has responded to Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar. The Punjab CM said that Khattar needs to be educated. Countering the Haryana CM's questions on Twitter, Captain Amarinder Singh has said whether he accepts and tolerate the recent beatings of protesting farmers in which a farmer died. He also added that his government will answer Haryana CM's questions on Twitter.

Captain Amarinder Singh also refused to say anything about Navjot Singh Sidhu and Pargat Singh. He added that the party high command will decide on the issues.

On the tiffin bomb issue, Punjab CM said that he won't be able to say what is the reason behind the conspiracy but one thing is clear that there is an attempt to disturb the peace in Punjab. Captain Amarinder Singh also said that he liked the recent renovation of the Jalianwala Bagh, a clear and different stand from the Congress.
