Earlier this month, Baghel met Union ministers, arguing that this leeway was given to the previous BJP government led by Raman Singh in 2016-17 and 2017-18. The Centre, however, has said that keeping the fiscal balance in mind, this is not possible.

The Congress government in Chhattisgarh has said that it will acquire paddy at the Centre-mandated MSP of just over Rs 1,800 per quintal this season, instead of Rs 2,500 per quintal as promised in its poll manifesto.

However, Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel sought to assure farmers that they would get Rs 2,500 per quintal “in their pockets”, saying a ministerial sub-committee had been set up to come up with a scheme that is designed to do this. Blaming the Centre, Baghel said it did not respond to repeated petitions to acquire paddy into the central pool despite the proposed higher MSP.

Over the last few months, the state government has written repeatedly to the Centre, asking for leeway in the rules for procurement of paddy above the Centre’s MSP, which say that if a state acquires paddy at a rate above the Centre’s MSP, the excess paddy would not be acquired into the central pool.
