Stir will go on till Republic Day, says BKU

Description

Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) chief Rakesh Tikait, on Friday, declared that the farmers’ agitation would continue till January 26, Republic Day. Stating that the Centre’s verbal assurances about the minimum support price (MSP) regime were not enough, he warned of a “march to New Delhi” on Republic Day in which agitating farmers would arrive on their own tractors. “We have come here to look for the government which stays only in Delhi. There are many more farmers who are waiting to come to Delhi in our support. There is no one who is trying to incite us, anyone trying to do so will be asked to leave,” he said.
