Madhya Pradesh farmers are battling dual challenges as unseasonal rain destroyed crops across the state, followed by a controversial electricity department order limiting power supply to just 10 hours daily. The restrictive directive sparked widespread outrage, forcing Chief Minister Mohan Yadav to intervene and cancel the order while removing the official responsible. Opposition leaders have criticized the BJP government for contradicting its promises of farmer welfare while rural areas continue to struggle with limited electricity access.
