However, Pragyan Ojha did not feel the need for an individual from another country to interfere in matters of the nation by 'poking her nose'. Ojha repleid to Rihanna's tweet on social media and wrote, "My country is proud of our farmers and knows how important they are, I trust it will be addressed soon. We don't need an outsider poking her nose in our internal matters!" Take a look at Ojha's reply below.
