Scores of farmers under the banner of the BKU (Dakaunda) faction participated in a protest rally organised against the three agricultural laws at Burj Rathi village in Mansa district on Sunday. The protesters vowed to “fight the battle till its logical conclusion” and continue to support and contribute to the agitation in whatever way they can.Makhan Singh, a union leader, said, “Apart from boycotting the BJP in villages of the Malwa region, we will not support any other political party.
