New Delhi, Sep 18: Commerce and Industry Minister Arun Jaitley today received a hero's welcome on his return from Cancun where he successfully projected India and other developing countries concerns on WTO issues. Jaitley, who arrived around midnight from New York, was given a rousing reception by BJP party workers for successfully raising the voice of Indian farmers at Cancun.

Praising Jaitley for his deft handling of contentious WTO issues, party workers said he had made the world realise that India's was a powerful voice of poor farmers who had been deprived of their livelihood by huge farm subsidies given by developed countries.

BJP president M Venkaiah Naidu has organised a felicitation function for Jaitley at the party headquarters tomorrow.
