‘RSS may try to infiltrate agitation’

CHANDIGARH: SAD (democratic) chief spokesperson Bir Devinder Singh on Friday described Prime Minister Narinder Modi’s attitude on the three recent farm bills as “obstinate”. He said PM’s consistent backing of the laws, which was contrary to the perception of farming community, showed that the ongoing agitation could be a much more long struggle. “Farmers’ organisations must understand the critical nuance of the narrative that is being portrayed by the BJP,” he said. He added reliable information revealed that RSS was planning a counter-offensive operation through its trained cadre to outmaneuver the strength of the farmers dharna, both at Singhu and Tikri Border, with the covert help of paramilitary forces. “There are reports doing the rounds that RSS is collecting uniforms of various paramilitary forces and other kinds of trapping kits to camouflage their real identity to infiltrate and destabilise the farmers’ movement,” he claimed.
