If we don’t stop this now, it will continue to happen in other sectors too, says Rahul Gandhi on new farm laws
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said on Friday (January 15) that Prime Minister Narendra Modi does not respect farmers and wants to tire out those protesting against the Centre’s new agri laws. He also said that the talks that are being held with the protesting farmer leaders are part of the government’s delaying tactics.
Farmers will not relent till the laws are repealed, said Rahul Gandhi at Jantar Mantar, where he along with Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra joined party MPs in their demonstration against the new farm laws.
Rahul Gandhi said, “The three (farm) laws have been brought to finish the farmers. If we don’t stop this now, it will continue to happen in other sectors too. Narendra Modi does not respect the farmers. The farmers will neither deter nor fear.”
On being asked about the resignation of one of the four experts nominated by the Supreme Court for talks with farmers, Rahul said, “Maya shabd suna hai aapne? Maya hai maya, poora ka poora, media -created maya hai aur yeh maya tutne wali hai. Jis din yeh maya tutti us din phir dekhna kya hota hai.”
