In Delhi, Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan chaired the meeting to discuss the GST reforms related to the agricultural sector. He said that these decreased GST rates will be applicable from September 22. Farmers will get direct benefit. Our commitment is to increase the income of farmers. I called a meeting of four major machine-manufacturing associations today. Tractor and Mechanization Association, TMA, All India Joint Creator Association, Agricultural Machinery Manufactures Association, and Power Tiller Association of India. Representatives of these four connected to us directly and virtually, and I urged that farmers should get the benefit of the reduction in GST rates effective from 22 September. This benefit should not be left in the middle. From September 22, farmers will get the real benefit of reduction in GST rates. This benefit is not small, but big.
