According to ISNA, Kamal Alipour Khondari said in a verbal remark during today's public session of the parliament: We are happy that the government is paying the demands of the wheat farmers, but more than one million tons of rice is left in the warehouses and no action is taken. The country cannot be managed under one roof.

He further stated: Buy wheat there, but don't pay for the products of rice farmers here. The president should pay attention to the problem of rice farmers.
