“Agriculture is the backbone of our economy and the rains damaged the economy after the coronavirus crisis,” he added. Demanding relief to the farmers by imposing an agriculture emergency, the PPP chairman said that in the current situation, the farmers have to be given relief and the farmers need help on an emergency basis.

He said that Prime Minister Imran Khan should visit the areas affected by rains and floods.
