New Delhi, Dec 2 (TIWN) Amid the ongoing agitation over farmers laws, on a day when Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi targeted the Modi government, Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan launched a counter-attack on the Congress on Monday by bringing in the name of Robert Vadra.

Union Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan made a counterpoint on Priyanka Gandhi's allegation. He took to Twitter to say, "The Vadra-Congress, which usurped the land of thousands of farmers in many states, is today donning the garb of being farmer-friendly. Priyanka Gandhiji, be assured. The Modi government will neither do injustice to the farmers nor defend the profiteering middlemen who grab farmers' land."  Farmers from Punjab and Haryana have  been agitating on the Delhi border with demands of withdrawal of all the three agricultural laws and seeking written assurances on continuation of minimum support price, among other issues. The Centre has already extended an offer for talks to the farmers and asked them to gather at the Burari grounds, but the farmers are not ready to accept any conditions for a dialogue.
