Description
Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM) leader Rakesh Tikait along with other farmer leaders today visited dera of Sant Baba Ajit Singh Hansali Wale to pray and seek the blessings from Sant Baba Parmjit Singh for the success of the ongoing farmers’ agitation at Delhi borders. As soon as the news spread about Tikait’s visit, a large number of farmers from the nearby area rushed to the dera to have a glimpse of the farmer leaders.Tikait said the success of the farmers’ agitation was imminent as during Parliament session all Opposition parties followed their whip and did not allow the government to run the session as per its wish. He said the Modi government had started feeling the heat and now it was looking for the middle path to withdraw the three contentious agricultural laws. He said the SKM would oppose the BJP in the upcoming Assembly elections in UP and Uttarakhand. He said the agitation would continue till the laws were not repealed. Refusing to comment on Charuni’s Punjab Model, he said the SKM would not contest any election.He said the SKM had urged farmers to put up big tricolour flags on their vehicles and take out peaceful marches in their respective areas without any sloganeering on Independence Day. He alleged the three farm laws would again make them slaves of corporate houses. — OC
