DMK kept poll promise, say farmers
Description
Farmers from delta districts have welcomed the state government adopting a resolution in the assembly urging the Centre to withdraw the three contentious farm laws, which they said would ruin the farming community. Thanjavur District Cauvery Farmers Protection Association secretary Swamimalai S Vimalnathan said the DMK has fulfilled its poll promise. “The house should also adopt a resolution against the Electricity Amendment Bill 2020,” he added. Meanwhile, chief minister M K Stalin on Saturday announced that cases filed against the farmers and political party leaders who had protested democratically against the farm laws will be withdrawn.TNN
