Give Rs 300 MSP for rubber, will back BJP: Kerala church leader

A Kerala archbishop has said rubber planters and their families will “ensure” an MP for BJP from the state if the Centre fixes a minimum price of Rs 300/kg for their produce — over twice the current level of Rs 120/kg. Thalassery archbishop Mar Joseph Pamplany’s call comes amid sustained efforts by the BJP national leadership to build bridges with Church leaders with an eye on Christian votes in the state.
