During his visit to the hospital, one of the injured women asked the Prime Minister for an autograph and he obliged.
The prime focus of the rally was the Centre's recent decision to increase the Minimum Support Price (MSP) of Kharif crops.
The Central Government on July 4 approved the proposal to hike MSP by 50 per cent for 14 Kharif crops for the year 2018-19. (ANI)
