Farmers’ agitation may continue till October: Bharatiya Kisan Union

Deccan Chronicle  

New Delhi: Refusing to budge, Bhartiya Kisan Union leader Rakesh Tikait said on Tuesday that the farmers’ agitation may continue till October as the protesters are not going to return home until the three controversial agricultural reform laws are withdrawn by the government. Soon after a delegation of Shiv Sena MPs, led by Sanjay Raut, met Mr Tikait at the Ghazipur border, the BKU leader said: “Our slogan is –‘kanoon wapsi nahi, to ghar wapsi nahi’. The Samyukta Kisan Morcha also alleged that the increased barricading, including digging trenches, fixing nails on roads, setting up barbed wire fences, closing of internal roads, stopping of internet services and “orchestrating protests through BJP-RSS workers” are part of the “attacks” being organised by the government, police and administration against the farmers. He said the AAP government in Delhi would help the Punjab CM in case he decided to station himself in the national capital to mobilise political parties in support of the farmers’ agitation.
