Farmers also share feel good factor, stresses Advani Friday, February 20 2004 22:24 Hrs (IST) Varanasi:
Deputy Prime Minister L K Advani today (Feb 20, 2004) said he was quoted out of context about farmers' sense of "feel good".
Denying media reports quoting him that "feel good" factor had not reached the farmers, he said Government has taken a number of welfare steps for farmers including introduction of Kisan Credit Card.
"They share the feel good factor which is being felt by the whole country," Advani said.
Addressing a rally in Varanasi, Advani said some 80 to 100 farmers from Mewat had met him yesterday and they told him they were not only feeling good, but also feeling better.
What he had stated yesterday was that there were crores of farmers in the country and he did not know whether the feel good had reached every farmer or not and "we will not be satisfied till this feel good reaches every farmer", he said.
