Congress to launch 1-month fast against anti-farmer law
Description
Hyderabad: Congress will not only launch a month-long agitation against the anti-farmer law of Narendra Modi-led BJP-government at the centre from September 25 but will also extend support to the protests being organised by the Left parties and other farmers and their associations against the farm bills. AICC general secretary in charge of Telangana Manickam Tagore on Tuesday asked all the District Congress Committee (DCC) presidents to play an active role in organising the agitations as these protests would continue until the BJP government withdraws the controversial Bills. He addressed the DCC presidents through an online app. During the meeting, TPCC president N Uttam Kumar Reddy brought it to the notice of Tagore that despite KCR-government implicating DCC chiefs in police cases, they have braved all odds to organise agitations by mobilising funds and other resources. tnn
