“How true it is today. No government can face the wrath of farmers who believe they are being deceived.” he added
On Monday, the farmers have hardened their stand on the demand for repealing the three farm laws.
The agitating farmers have already announced to take out a tractor parade towards Delhi on January 26, which is Republic Day, besides a series of programmes in a bid to intensify their protest.
Ahead of joining the talks, Harinder Singh Lokhowal, a prominent farmer leader from Punjab and Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) general secretary told IANS, “I will ask the government to take back the new laws and save farmers who they call ‘Annadata’, as over 50 farmers have lost their lives during the protest.”
He said, “How many sacrifices the government wants to take?”
He also criticised the action taken by state governments of Haryana and Punjab to stop the farmers from approaching Delhi as the Haryana Police fired tear gas at them in Rewari district.
He said the farmer leaders from the Singhu border would leave for the Vigyan Bhawan by 12 p.m. as the meeting was scheduled Monday at 2 p.m.
