NDTV
Shiv Sena's Sanjay Raut said the government is not serious about the farmers' issue, and that it does not even listen to the farmers' "Mann ki Baat".
Slamming the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Monday said the police action against protesting farmers in Haryana's Karnal is a kind of "Talibani mentality". Speaking to mediapersons, Mr Raut said, "Attack on farmers is a shameful incident for the nation. This is a kind of Talibani mentality. Farmers are doing protests for two years on the Ghazipur border, Haryana border... They are fighting for their rights." "The SDM gave an order to break the head of the farmers and the government is not serious about this issue. How can this government say it is for the poor and for the farmers? It does not even listen to farmers' "Mann ki Baat"," said Mr Raut. The Shiv Sena MP's remarks came after several farmers were injured during police action in Haryana's Karnal on Saturday. A farmer injured in the lathi-charge also died on Sunday.More Related News
