- Punjab supplies 50 according to cent of vegetation to feed the country. Inexperienced Revolution happened because of Punjab farmers. All the state’s economic system, everyone is attached with farming. Now, the farming staff feels that with the brand new invoice and the capitalist coming in, the farmers fill they’ll be on the mercy of those personal gamers. That is the apprehension they’ve. The Centre must communicate to them to transparent this concern.
- I attempted to persuade them however my phrases were not sufficient. Is also my voice was once now not loud sufficient.
- How are you able to herald one thing with out making an allowance for the folk’s belief?
- I discussed that farmers have apprehension and no rule must be shaped with out taking the stakeholders on board. And within the remaining couple of days, when the agitation began gaining momentum, I requested them to thrill give them a listening to. We are not looking for a farmers’ agitation at this level.
- For the longest time, Congress was once synonymous with corruption and Amarinder Singh is synonymous to dhokha (fraud). Captain Amarinder Singh was once a part of 3 conferences, the place he concurred to the expenses.
- In 2019, the Congress manifesto obviously said that they’re going to do the precisely the similar what those ordinances state. So, clearly if this stuff are in manifesto, Amarinder Singh will concur. Now, they’re staging a walkout. They’re mendacity.
