Congress-backed people masqueraded as farmers and attacked us, says Harsimrat Kaur Badal
A violent confrontation took place between a group of farmers and the Shiromani Akali Dal members in Ferozepur on Wednesday.
The incident occurred near the venue of a rally addressed by former Union Minister and SAD leader Harsimrat Kaur Badal. Farmer leaders claimed that at least two farmers suffered serious injuries after SAD members attempted to plough into the protest.
Jagmohan Singh, general secretary, Bhartiya Kisan Union-Ekta (Dakonda), told The Hindu that farmers associated with it were protesting peacefully and wanted to meet Ms. Badal to seek answers on their issues, including SAD’s role in the controversial farm laws enacted by the NDA Government, of which the Akali Dal was a part when the laws were passed.
