Aatmja Kumari(Intern Journalist): Lucknow: Demonstration of farmers sitting in opposition to agricultural laws continues. Farmers’ organizations have called for a Bharat Bandh on December 8 in support of this. This bandh called by the farmers across the country is getting support and with this all the political parties have come out in support of the farmers. After the mobilization of these political parties, now the Bharatiya Janata Party has also taken a strong stand on it. In this regard, Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath attacked the opposition fiercely and questioned their destiny. The issues that these BJP leaders tried to raise are as follows:
The leaders of the peasant movement have clearly stated that political people will not come on our platform. We respect their feelings. But all these are jumping, because they are getting another chance to oppose BJP and Narendra Modi. The opposition is trying to save its existence.
The BJP says that the Congress party has clearly stated in its election manifesto in the 2019 election that it will abolish the Agricultural Produce Market Act and free the farmers from all restrictions on the export and trade of their crops. Now what happened, why are they retreating from it.
When Sharad Pawar was the Minister of Agriculture and Consumer Affairs, he wrote a letter to all the Chief Ministers of the country. In which he wrote that a change in the mandi act is necessary, it is necessary for the private sector to come, farmers should have the opportunity to sell their crops anywhere.
Akhilesh Ji Agricultural Standing Committee report has come. Your father Mulayam Singh Yadav is also a member in it. He has also clearly stated in that report that it is very important that the farmers be freed from the clutches of the mandis. Targeting Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, the BJP said, “The new law was gazetted by the Delhi government on 23 November 2020. On one side you are opposing, on the other side you are notifying.
