Exempt farmers from toll tax, demands samiti
Description
After the PM’s announcement about the repealing of the three farm laws, the Toll Hatao Sangharsh Samiti has again raised the demand for tax exemption to the farmers across the nation.It has decided to put forward the demand before the Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM) in its meeting to be held at Singhu on Sunday.“We have been demanding free passage to farmers through toll booths for a long time. As all toll booths are, at present, free for every road user in Punjab and Haryana owing to the ongoing protest, the issue had taken a back seat. Since the PM has now announced to repeal the three farm laws in the upcoming Parliament session, it is high time that this demand is raised again,” said Virender Hooda, president of the samiti. — TNS
