PM’s apology nothing but drama: Raghavulu
The Hindu
Welcomes KCR’s support to farmers’ agitation
The Communist Party of India (Marxist) has said that farmers as well as the representatives of Kisan Samyukta Morcha think that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s statement withdrawing the three farm laws was nothing but drama.
CPI (M) politburo member B.V. Raghavulu wondered as to whom the Prime Minister had apologised. “There is no clarity in the PM’s statement. The development appears like a drama. Is the PM apologising to around 750 farmers who lost their lives because of the Centre’s decision or is he apologising the deaths of farmers who were run over by the convoy of a Central Minister?” he asked.
Speaking to reporters during the conclusion of State CPI (M) committee’s two-day meeting here on Sunday, Mr. Raghavulu appreciated the leaders of the Morcha for deciding to continue their agitation till the “anti-farmer legislations” were withdrawn formally and for enactment of a legislation on minimum support price. The CPI (M) extended its solidarity with the protests planned by the Morcha on November 26 and the party leaders and cadre would work for ensuring the success of the protests.
