Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Friday said the PM Modi-led government's Farm Bills are like a bitter reminder of the East India Company's rule.

Hitting out at the NDA government over the passage of three contentious farm Bills, Gandhi said in a tweet that farmers will be deprived of Minimum Support Price (MSP). "They (farmers) will neither get price nor respect."


On the issue of contract farming, she said, "Farmers will become labourers in their own land."
