BJP MP: Khalistanis, ‘tukde-tukde’ gang hijacking farmers’ stir

Kanpur: BJP MP Satyadeo Pachauri on Monday said “farmers’ protest is being hijacked by political parties, Khalistan terrorists and ‘tukde-tukde’ gang.” “Our enemy countries are closely monitoring the agitation and are pushing ‘Khalistan supporters’ and members of ‘tukde-tukde’ gang into it so as to create anarchy in the country. In fact, Khalistan supporters have already made an entry which was evident by vandalising the statue of father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi in the US,” said local BJP MP Pachauri while briefing media at his camp office in the city. He added, “There are also reports that the protesters are raising slogans againstPM Narendra Modi and the posters of Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale have surfaced during the protest at the Delhi border. These are the same elements who had majorly protested during abrogation of Article 370, besides over the construction of Ram temple and passing of CAA bill.” Pachauri termed the farm laws a ‘second Green Revolution’. “We have seen the first Green Revolution. Now, it is the second Green Revolution under the able leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” he said and added, “Passage of three farm bills is only going to make farmers wealthy.” Pachauri attacked the opposition parties, saying that those who are against the new laws are not well-wishers of the farmers. “You all have witnessed how the opposition tried to obstruct the passing of the bills that would liberalise the farmers.”
