<h1>NITI Aayog Confirms No Plan to Tax Agricultural Income; Focus Remains on Doubling Farmers' Income, Clarifies Vice-Chairman.</h1> NITI Aayog Vice-Chairman stated there is no plan to tax agricultural income, emphasizing the government's focus on doubling farmers' income. This response followed a controversial remark by a NITI Aayog member suggesting agricultural income taxation. The Vice-Chairman clarified that the 3-year action agenda only mentions closing loopholes that allow non-agriculturists to convert black money into white by declaring it as agricultural income. The Finance Minister also confirmed no proposal exists to tax farm income, and NITI Aayog distanced itself from the member's personal view. States can waive farm loans but must adhere to the FRBM Act.
