Fight elections, but avoid using SKM's name: Yogendra Yadav to farm leaders
Description
Jai Kisan Andolan founder Yogendra Yadav on Monday cautioned farm leaders not to use the SKM name while contesting polls.“Everyone has the right to contest polls, but our leaders should avoid using the SKM. If they do so, it will give a wrong message and people’s confidence in the movement will be shattered.”On being asked about the stir achievements, Yadav said no doubt their demands were accepted, but they had lost over 700 farmers, which was a big loss to them. “We gained unity, self-respect and made the political parties aware of our strength. These are the achievements of our agitation,” he said, adding they would hold a meeting on January 15 in Delhi to discuss the Centre’s steps on their pending demands. — TNS
