Union minister Piyush Goyal is keeping an eye on it….The Union government has made all the preparations so that farmers do not face any troubles. You will see that soon,” Bawankule said.
He also said that Sharad Pawar and NCP MP and Pawar’s daughter Supriya Sule will have a change of heart and support Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership in view of the works done by the prime minister in the last nine years and the works he will be undertaking this year.
