Residents take out march in support of farmers
Description
Amritsar, December 26 A large number of people on Saturday took out a march in the city to protest against the Centre’s indifferent attitude towards the farmers who had been sitting in the bitter cold on borders of Delhi for the last one month. The participants riding on tractors and cars raised slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led NDA government in the Centre. The vehicles carrying banners depicting peasant struggle were seen in the march. Farmer activists, including Rajan Mann, Gurdev Singh Mahal, Tejpal Singh Cheema, Harjeet Singh Jhite and Angrej Singh Randhawa criticised the Central Government for its indifferent attitude. They said the Union Government was spreading propaganda to discredit the struggle. Mann said the Centre had done disservice to the country by forcibly implementing various policies, including demonetisation, GST, abrogation of Article 370 and enacting agri laws.
