In Madhya Pradesh, farmer organizations announced plans to protest due to delays in wheat procurement at the Minimum Support Price (MSP) by the state government.
Despite being one of India's top wheat producers, procurement processes have stalled, with claims of false reasons such as a lack of plastic bags being given.
As the situation exacerbates farmers' debts and benefits traders exploiting below-MSP prices, leaders warn of imminent mass agitation if issues are not resolved promptly.
