BKU: Unions reinventing stir strategy

Moga, January 29

After the Red Fort incident on Republic Day, farm unions were preparing a fresh strategy to carry out protests against the three farm laws, said BKU (Ekta) general secretary Sukhdev Singh Kokri.

Blaming the BJP-led governments at the Centre, Haryana and UP for tarnishing the image of “peacefully” protesting farmers, he said protests would continue until the three laws were rolled back by the Union Government.

After holding a state-level meeting of the union at Machike village here last evening, he said he had asked ground-level workers to go village to village and regroup farmers.

The meeting unanimously passed a resolution demanding withdraw of all cases registered against farmers and farm leaders in Delhi, Haryana and UP. — TNS
