Demonstration by LDF in Aurangabad
Description
Aurangabad: The workers and employees’ action committee affiliated to the Left Democratic Front (LDF) on Friday staged a demonstration in front of the district collectorate demanding the withdrawal of the farm bills. They also submitted a memorandum to President of India Ramnath Kovind through the district collector. Senior CPI leader Ram Baheti said: “We have drawn the President’s attention to the fact that 260 different farmers’ outfits were opposing the bills.” Lawyer-activist Abhay Taksal said the bills were approved without any discussion. “Instead of sending them to the expert committee, the decisions were taken at the cost of parliamentary traditions. The government intends to destroy the market committees for the benefit of corporates.” tnn
