![New Farm Laws Will Weaken Nation's Foundation: Rahul](https://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/19571/547073/5f9f4e978573e/Rahul-Gandhi.jpg)
RAIPUR: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday said the three new farm laws enacted by the Centre will weaken the foundation of the nation, and asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to reconsider the laws in the interest of farmers.
Virtually addressing the Chhattisgarh statehood day celebrations, Gandhi hailed a scheme launched by the state government to set English medium schools in all districts, saying the language provides a global opportunity to youth.
The function to celebrate the statehood of Chhattisgarh, which came into existence on November 1, 2000 after being carved out of Madhya Pradesh, was held at Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghels official residence here.
Gandhi said the country has been witnessing a tough phase due to COVID-19 outbreak. In such a situation, the weakest sections like farmers, labourers, small businessmen, mothers, sisters and youth are the worst-affected.
The condition of farmers in the country is known to everyone. We read news of farmer suicides every day. In a way, it is happening on such a scale that the country has accepted it, he said.
