Next election, big or small, will be fought on farm laws: Jayant Chaudhary
The Hindu
Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) vice president Jayant Chaudhary on Thursday said “those who could not see farmers sitting on the Delhi border, I could not see humanity in them.”
He was addressing a kisan panchayat of his party in Bhojpur village of Modinagar. Had the BJP government been a wellwisher of farmers, they would not have imposed a penalty of ₹ 1 crore on farmers for stubble burning. “Can any farmer afford to pay such penalty,” he asked. Every farmer present at the panchayat, he said, would have tractors that were more than 10 years old. “But the government feels they could afford to buy new ones. I am not sure whether they want to double your income or theirs,” he commented.
