Vowing to raise voice for farmers on very platform, Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said government should take into account their concerns and not just extend monetary assistance.

The Congress Vice President, who met farmers hit by unseasonal rains in Punjab and stayed here overnight after travelling by train to the NDA-ruled state, also took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, asking whether the farmers are not contributing to 'Make in India' by providing food to the entire country.

"I will raise the voice and pain suffered by farmers and atrocities on them on every platform,' said Rahul, a day after BJP and its ally in Punjab Shiromani Akali Dal termed his visit as a "political drama' over the land bill.
