New Delhi:
One day after peasant leader Rakesh Tikait’s convoy in the Alwar district of Rajasthan was allegedly thrown stones, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said on Saturday that we will “face the Sangh together” and will not stop until the laws are repealed. agricultural.
The police in the stone throwing case have detained a student leader, who according to the Bhartiya Kisan Union, belonged to Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, the student wing of the BJP, and accused the party of being behind the attack.
“Their Sangh teaches them to attack, while non-violent satyagraha makes farmers brave,” Gandhi said in a Hindi tweet.
“We will face Sangh together, we will only stop until the three anti-agriculture and anti-national laws are repealed,” the former head of Congress said.
Hundreds of farmers have been camping at the Delhi border points at Ghazipur, Singhu and Tikri since November last year demanding that the Center repeal the three controversial farm laws.
Enacted in September, the three agricultural laws have been projected by the Center as major reforms in the agricultural sector that will eliminate middlemen and allow farmers to sell their products anywhere in the country.
The protesting farmers, on the other hand, have expressed their apprehension that the new laws would pave the way to remove the Minimum Livelihood Price (MSP) safety cushion and end the “mandi” (wholesale market) system, leaving them in the mercy of large corporations.
