Centre trying to crush farmers’ agitation, says Vijoo Krishnan
All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS) joint secretary Vijoo Krishnan has alleged that the BJP regime at the Centre was resorting to oppressive tactics to crush the ongoing agitation by farmers against the Centre’s three farm laws since November last year.
Undeterred by the repressive measures by the BJP dispensation, the farmers are spearheading the agitation with indomitable spirit demanding the repeal of the three “pro-corporate” agriculture laws, he said, adding that the farmers are determined to continue the ongoing agitation until the three “black laws” are repealed.
He was speaking at a seminar on “Bharatha Vyavasaya Rangam — Prastutha Savallu” (Indian Agriculture Sector — Current Challenges) organised by the Telangana Rythu Sangham in Kothagudem on Monday, according to a press release.
