New Delhi: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP from Unnao, Uttar Pradesh, Sakshi Maharaj supported liquor ban in the state on Wednesday.
Taking agitating women's side he said that their anger is justifiable.
Interestingly, delivering on BJP's poll promise to small and marginal farmers, the Yogi Adityanath government on Tuesday decided to waive their crop loans up to Rs 1 lakh, totalling a staggering Rs 36,359 crore.
The move will benefit over 2.15 crore farmers, besides 7 lakh others who had secured loans which turned into non- performing assets (NPAs).
However, it will be interesting to see that will the Yogi government also put a ban on liquor in the state like the one done in Bihar under the rule of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.
