New Delhi [India], March 13 (ANI): Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) MP Harsimrat Kaur Badal came out heavily against Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann accusing him of 'misbehaving' with the farmers.
She also slammed the Bharatiya Janata Party, Aam Aam Aadmi Party and Congress for not fulfilling the promises of farmers.
'All the three parties made big promises to the farmers. When Congress' Captain Amrinder Singh was the CM, farmers were sitting outside Delhi for more than 1.5 years and more than 700 farmers lost their lives', Harsimrat Kaur Badal told ANI on Wednesday.
'This AAP government also made big promises to the protesting farmers. It has been three years since they formed government in the state, nothing has happened. The CM misbehaves with the farmers... Is he a CM or a gangster?' Badal added.
Last week, thousands of farmers gathered at the Golden Gate in Amritsar to protest against the Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann-led government in Punjab.
Speaking to ANI, farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher said that they would burn effigies of the Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann-led government in different districts of the state to mark their protest. Pandher also demanded the release of farmers who were allegedly arrested by the Punjab police.
'We will have programs in around 18 districts. At 21 locations in Amritsar alone, we will burn effigies of the Bhagwant Mann government. Today's program will be done at hundreds of locations across Punjab. SKM's Punjab Union's leader was detained along with the leadership of Kisan Majdoor Morcha...So, today's program is against the human rights violations of farmers...It will be done peacefully...We demand that all arrested farmers should be released,' Pandher said.
