| Congress holds protest in Jammu against Farm Laws | | | Early times Report
Jammu, Dec 5: The Congress Party on Saturday held a protest in Jammu in a bid to express solidarity with the ongoing farmers' agitation. The protest was organised by District Congress Committee Jammu (Urban). The Protest was led by Former Ministers and Yogesh Sawhney ( General Secretary) JKPCC. Various Congress leaders came out to show opposition to the anti-farmer farm laws and demand their repeal.
Hitting out at the Prime Minister for his remarks that farm laws reforms have opened doors of new opportunities for farmers, former Minister and senior Congress leader said that insistence in support of the laws shows that the government is "drunk with power" and is rigid even in reconsidering the laws.
He demanded that Govt should immediately announce the suspension of the three "anti-agriculture" laws. He attacked the government over the protest by farmers, alleging "promise was to double farmers' income, the Modi government did double income, but that of Adani-Ambani".
"Those who are still defending the black farm laws, what solution will they find in favour of farmers?" he said.
Former Minister further said that BJP Govt’s "obduracy, arrogance and rigidity in dealing with 62 crore farmers and farm labourers of India is writ large" over his insistence in the 'Mann ki Baat' that the three "anti-farmer, anti-agriculture" laws are correct.
"For the Prime Minister to say that these three laws are absolutely right when lakhs and lakhs of farmers are sitting around Delhi agitating, demanding their withdrawal, shows that the Modi government is drunk with power," he said.
It shows that a government "drunk with power" is rigid even in re-contemplating and reconsidering the three "anti-agriculture black laws," he added. |
