Earlier on Sunday, during the protest at Delhi's borders, Rakesh Tikait had suggested that farmers in Karnataka should organise a protest in the state similar to that of Delhi and ''gherao'' (surround) Bengaluru from all sides.
Ahead of the Bharat Bandh, Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) president Rakesh Tikait on Tuesday said that farmers agitating against the Central farm laws would not be divided and they may have to go to the national capital and breach barricades again. "They (Centre) has tried to divide us on the lines of caste and religion but they were unsuccessful. You would need to go to Delhi when asked and have to breach barricades again," Rakesh Tikait said while addressing a gathering in Jaipur. Hitting out at the Central government, he said: "PM Modi said farmers can sell crops anywhere. We will prove it by selling at State Assemblies, Collectors'' offices and the Parliament. No mandi can be better than Parliament."
