Present Yogi government have provided electricity 24 hours which is a great help," sugarcane farmer Sanjay Gujjar told ANI.Another farmer Lalit Kumar opined that good value to produce is what a normal farmer demands for his hard work and since dues are getting cleared quickly, he has batted for the Yogi government's working style."Farmer just want good payment and we are getting payments on time within 10 days," he added.Although some farmers believe that payment for their produce is on time but still electricity rate is a cause of concern which is why they want to give a chance to other parties and change the government."Although payment of dues done on time but electricity is an issue.
