Veeramani releases book on farm laws

Description

Dravidar Kazhagam president K. Veeramani on Saturday released a book,Agriculture Acts 2020, written by Justice A.K. Rajan, former judge of the Madras High Court. The book is about the three controversial Central farm laws, which triggered massive protests by farmers in New Delhi. Justice Rajan said the book was a concise work on the farm laws and batted for federalism. Speaking about the book, Vijoo Krishnan, joint secretary, All India Kisan Sabha, said, “Justice Rajan’s book has shown how the laws hit at the federal structure of our country. The BJP, which professes the Hindutva ideology and has done away with our diverse culture, is now talking about ‘one nation, one market’.” “This should not be seen as just the farmers’ issue. It goes beyond that. The States’ rights and our Constitution have to be defended,” Mr. Veeramani said.
