Intervening in a debate on the drought conditions in several parts of the country, the Congress leader angrily said that “it was not right to (make) claim without doing anything”.

It also gave them good prices for their farm produce,” he said, asking Parliamentary Affairs Minister Venkaiah Naidu what the BJP government had done for agriculturalists since May 2014.

“Now, they want to become champions of the farmers,” the Congress leader remarked.
