Repeal farm legal guidelines directly: Maya, Akhilesh to Centre

1 min read

A day after violence throughout the farmers’ protest in Delhi, former Uttar Pradesh chief ministers Mayawati and Akhilesh Yadav focused the Centre, demanding that it withdraw the farm legal guidelines that introduced the protesters out on the streets within the first place.
“Whatever happened in the National Capital during the tractor rally of farmers on the occasion of Republic Day should not have happened. It is most unfortunate and the central government should also take this very seriously,” BSP chief Mayawati stated in an announcement.
Requesting the Narendra Modi authorities to repeal the agricultural legal guidelines being protested, Mayawati added, “At the same time, the BSP makes an appeal to the central government to take back all the three farm laws without any delay so that farmers finish their lone agitation and such incidents are not repeated.”

Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav hit out on the BJP-led authorities on the Centre, accusing it of neglecting farmers. “The approach the BJP authorities has always uncared for farmers, disrespected them, and blamed them, it performed a job, resulting in the agitation of farmers.
Whatever scenario that has developed, the BJP authorities is accountable for it,” he added. The former chief minister requested the BJP “own moral responsibility and take back the farm laws immediately”.
On Tuesday, the SP had organised tractor rallies in numerous elements of the state in solidarity with the farmers protesting in Delhi.
