Ambala, December 27

Bhartiya Kisan Union (Charuni) chief Gurnam Singh Charuni today threatened to resume the farm agitation if the three controversial farm laws were introduced in any other form.

He said nearly 750 farmers had died during the struggle to get the farm law repealed and if the laws were brought back, they would not only resume the agitation, but also enter Parliament this time.

The Bhartiya Kisan Union chief said: “Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar has said the three farm laws were good, but under the pressure of some people, the government had taken a step back and repealed those. But they will go forward again. We want to warn the

government that if the controversial farm laws are brought back in any other form, causing loss to farmers, we will resume the

agitation and will not limit ourselves to the Delhi borders this time. We will enter Parliament and stage a protest there.”

The Union Minister had yesterday clarified that the government was not planning to bring back the recently repealed farm laws and blamed the Congress for spreading “rumours” about it.
