Detailed Solution

The given statement is false.
Farm workers are not paid minimum wages fixed by the Government. The payment of wages to farmers in Palampur depends on the type of farming activity they engage in and can take the form of cash, food, or other crops. The primary industry in Palampur is farming. Due to intense competition, the wages paid to farm labourers in Palampur are lower than the government-set minimum wages. Farmers in Palampur are in fierce competition with one another for jobs, so they are prepared to accept lower pay. 115 rupees per day is the set minimum wage for farm labourers. Farmworkers, however, only receive Rs. 70–80.
So, farm workers are not paid the minimum wages fixed by the Government in Palampur.
